   Deathstrike is perhaps the most dangerous offensive spell a Necromancer
can unleash. A successful deathstrike can immediately end the life of the
victim. The focus necessary for a deathstrike demands that the caster
be in a trance, and endowed with 100 points of mana.  The only magic that can
protect the intended victim from a successful deathstrike is sanctuary.

   Magicians previously had access to Deathstrike; it has been replaced on
the Magician spell list by Arcane Prodigy.
