A Lich is a sorcerer that usually willingly turns itself into an undead creature. Lichs look like a skeletal like creature and usually have their old cloths on, usually torn and ripped due to the fact that they have been around for a long time. They do this in order to obtain great dark powers, much stronger then a normal sorcerer or necromancer. Due to the fact that they are undead, they have a lot more time to study magic. Lichs have the ability to control the undead. They can also make dead things into undead similar to a necromancer. It is also said that a Lich can turn living creatures into undead without having to kill them first, although it is not completely certain.
