How to learn
Notes
- The ghouls are also able to bite a target that is
Prone, 
Knocked Out, or 
Sleeping. The damage dealt through biting will be regained as 
Hit Points. [Needs Verification] - This spell can only be acquired by completing the quest Unlock the Ancient Tome, in Act Three, which fully unlocks the secrets of the Necromancy of Thay.
- The ghouls are immune to
Demonspirit Madness. This prevents them from being driven Mad due to a failed Wisdom saving throw when the summoner wears 
Abyss Beckoners. - Currently (09/13/2023) the Necromancy Wizard subclass is causing this spell to summon 5 ghouls instead of 4. Spell tooltip unchanged.
- The Ghouls explode when killed, dealing Necrotic area-of-effect damage. This can destroy other Ghouls as a chain reaction and hurt nearby party members as well.
