What are the limits of Necromancy? If a cat eats a mouse, can

>>55006648
That depends on the setting because necromancy doesn't exist.

In order to successfully resurrect the dead, I would think one needs to have a mostly intact corpse. Therefore, if the cat doesn't chew its food and merely gobbles it whole, it could be done, yet once digestion starts accelerating in the stomach, I'd think it wouldn't be possible to do anymore.

Ask your DM.

Necromancy is a form of divination and completely useless for raising the dead.

>What about Fossils?
But in your setting fossils are just bits of stone that the Creator put there as a joke.

It goes as far as undead insect Swarms, even Demons and other Outsiders.

Animate Dead is a Touch spell, so no, you cannot animate a mouse that is inside a cat.

After it is pooped out, there isn't enough of the mouse's skeleton left to animate it.

Fossils are rarely made of bone. In fact, the bones crumble, and then other minerals leak inside the gap left by the buried bones and create an imprint based on the bones' shape. Unless it is a mostly intact skeleton (which is rare), the fossil cannot be animated.

I like the version where you can raise anything, replacing missing parts with ectoplasm (requiring more power) so having a whole corpse makes it easier.

Also older corpse = stronger corpse so fossils are hard to raise but are murder machines.

Have a little self respect

Would Stone to Flesh be able to turn fossils back into bones that can then be animated?

I'd imagine you get a lot of bone-shaped meat chunks in that case.
