Class Features Bone Legion (1st Level) From the start, you command an undead force. As an action, you may raise a number of skeletons equal to twice your Undead Warlord level (minimum 20). These skeletons obey your mental commands. You can issue a single command to all of them at once. They take their turns on your initiative. At 1st level, you can command 20-30 skeletons at all times.

Death March (2nd Level) Your undead never stops growing. You can reanimate any humanoid as a skeleton instantly when it dies within 30 feet of you. The range of your undead control increases to 1 mile. Your skeletons now gain advantage on saving throws against Turn Undead and similar effects.




Undead General (3rd Level) You can now delegate control of your skeletons to lieutenants (stronger undead you create). This allows you to split your army into independent squads, each following preset orders.

Endless Horde (5th Level) Your army swells into hundreds. You can control 100+ skeletons at all times. Your skeletons gain Multiattack (two attacks per turn). You can reanimate up to 10 skeletons per action. You can now summon Death Knight (5 skeletons) and Death Knight Aspirant(3 skeletons).

Unholy Resilience (6th Level) Your undead gain increased durability: All skeletons under your control gain +3 AC. They have resistance to nonmagical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage.


7th Level – Aura of Dread Your mere presence unnerves the living. Enemies within 30 feet of you have disadvantage on Wisdom saving throws against your spells and undead abilities. Creatures that start their turn in this aura must make a Wisdom saving throw (DC = 8 + proficiency + Charisma modifier) or become frightened for 1 minute. If a creature succeeds on the save, they are immune to this aura for 24 hours. Your army now numbers 300 undead.


Unstoppable Tide (9th Level) Your skeletons now fight as a true army: You can resurrect up to 100 skeletons per action. Your control limit increases to 500+ skeletons. You gain immunity to necrotic damage.

Master of the Dead (10th Level) There is no longer a hard cap on your undead. You can now raise unlimited skeletons, though you can only issue direct orders to (Undead Warlord level × 100) skeletons at once. Your influence spreads across entire battlefields.

11th Level – Master of Undeath You are now a true general of the dead, able to command vast legions effortlessly. You can now mentally control all of your undead simultaneously, giving them complex orders that they follow without needing direct actions from you. You can see and hear through any of your undead within 1 mile. Your Raise Dead spells no longer require components. Your army now numbers 2,000 undead.

Bone Giants (13th Level) You can summon Skeletal Ogres, Minotaurs, and Giants in addition to normal skeletons. These count as 5 skeletons each for your control limit.




Dark Dominion (14th Level) Your army now stretches across entire nations. You can communicate telepathically with all your undead at any distance. You can permanently reanimate slain creatures.


Skeletal Colossi (15th Level) You can now summon Skeletal Dragons, Undead War Machines, and Colossal Bone Constructs. Each counts as 50 skeletons in your control limit. Your undead forces now number in the tens of thousands. Limitless Power The power of dragons flows through you. Beginning at 15th level, when you fail a saving throw whilst transformed, you can choose to succeed instead. You can use this feature two times and by the 18th level three times, regaining use upon finishing a long rest.

Bone Titan Legion (17th Level) You can now bind the bones of titanic creatures into massive undead horrors. Your undead are nearly unstoppable. Your skeletons gain resistance to magical weapons.





World Ender (18th Level) You are a force of global destruction. Raise 500,000 skeletons instantly. Your undead never decay. You are immune to all damage except radiant.


Bone Emperor (20th Level) You are no longer mortal. You have become undying necrotic energy given form. Your army is limitless. You can control as many undead as you want. If you die, your body reforms in 1d10 days unless every skeleton under your control is destroyed. Your skeletons now attack three times per turn. You can reanimate an entire battlefield’s worth of dead as a free action. At this level, you are an unstoppable force, ruling over a planet-sized undead horde.
