@SteveCouplandif we can agree there are good undead (ie baelnorn), could a cleric of Sehanine use Animate Dead to make non-evil undead? I'd house rule it so, but for the game I'd look at creating a different spell. Zombies and skeletons are inherently evil.

@SteveCouplandgood thoughts. Could a good cleric maintain control over evil undead using Animate Dead, to utilize them for a good cause? possibly for short time, but only under dire need
