The subject's face briefly takes on a gaunt, pale look and a death's-head rictus before returning to normal.
You plant a kernel of negative energy in a subject, which is held in check by the positive energy inherent to the subject's own life force.
Seed of undeath does not, in and of itself, harm the subject.
Should the subject die before the spell expires, however, it rises as a zombie 1 round later (as per the animate dead spell), as long as a sufficient corpse remains.
Any undead created in this manner are automatically under your control.
This spell has no effect on players.
