Body Part Magic

Since so much of the Neph's abilities have to do with corpse parts and whatnot, I thought I'd give it a section to clarify.

The idea here is to use mob corpses and body parts as key items to do magical stuff. Mobs sometimes leave a body part behind on the ground when they die - it's random which part they leave (each mob is programmed to do this, or not, and if so programmed which body parts they may leave behind). Both corpses and body parts rot and poof after a few minutes.

So, the first tactic is to use "lingering decay" to prevent corpses from rotting immediately so you have longer to work with it.

Second, you can then buy some embalming fluid, to preserve any body parts that dropped so they do not rot and poof.

Third, once you get Harvest you can hack a specific body part out of a corpse (so you can then embalm it!)

With those, you can cast a few special spells below.

You can also cut a skinmask off any corpse at any time, unrelated to the above.

10 Embalm 95% Preserve mob body part Embalming Fluid

19 Skinmask 95% any Cut face-wear from corpse Blade weapon
49 Possess 80% fighting (evasive) Become a mob Harvested Heart
50 Pestilence 95% fighting (evasive) Summon Locusts Pixie Wing
