The Shaman suffers no negative effects for being raised in this way. With the exception of the reduced hitpoints, this ability is functionally identical to the true resurrection spell. Ancestral Spirit (Su): A Shaman gains the ability to restore the dead to life. By casting this ability for ten consecutive rounds, the Shaman may resurrect a creature that has been dead for as long as one year per class level.
