Gentle Repose

2-level Abjuration

Casting Time: 1 action + 10 minutes

Range/Area: Touch

Components: Verbal (Non arcane casters), Somatic, Material (Non arcane casters)

Materials: a pinch of salt and one coin placed on each of the corpse's eyes, which must remain there for the duration

Duration: 10 Days

You touch a corpse or other remains. For the duration, the target is protected from decay and can't become undead. The spell also effectively extends the time limit on raising the target from the dead, since days spent under the influence of this spell don't count against the time limit of spells such as raise dead.
