A RimWorld of Magic - Dread Lich

Description
Revises Liches: Liches are the remains of great wizards who embrace undeath as a means of preserving themselves. They further their own power at any cost, having no interest in the affairs of the living except where those affairs interfere with their own. Scheming and insane, they hunger for long-forgotten knowledge and the most terrible secrets. Because the shadow of death doesn’t hang over them, they can conceive plans that take years, decades, or centuries to come to fruition.

A lich is a gaunt and skeletal humanoid with withered flesh stretched tight across its bones. Its eyes succumbed to decay long ago, but points of light burn in its empty sockets. It is often garbed in the moldering remains of fine clothing and jewelry worn and dulled by the passage of time.

IMPORTANT NOTE: You become a lich the same way you do normally. Have a Necromancer learn the Lich Form Spell, and cast it. Your new Lich will gain the Death Knight Class skills.

This is basically the same as my Dread Necromancer class, but with the added benefit of being a Lich (no food or sleep plus more mana and stamina), and with an added step to advance from a regular necromancer (only necro mage skills) into a Lich (necro mage and DK fighter skills).

Also, reenables Recreation need for Liches. Everyone needs some fun.

Also enables all work types except for dumb. Liches do not clean. But they will play with a cute puppy, or terrorize some slaves, or cook some people up to feed to said terror stricken slaves.

@Netzach Sloth How would I adjust the max mana and mana regeneration rates? I see that this mod has the following in the trait xml, which I assume is for total stamina and stamina regen: <maxSP>1</maxSP>
<spRegenRate>+1</spRegenRate>
Would maxMP and mpRegenRate adjust max mana and mana regen?

@Netzach Sloth I hope you'll have time to update this for 1.6 once Odyssey drops in July, this is necessary to role Lich imo.

This is a great modification to the lich path, thank you!

does it work on 1.5?

I just wanted to confirm that this as well as the dread necromancer do indeed work with 1.4.

Cool! Waiting for the 1.4:steamhappy:
By the way, did you disable the 'fly'? It seems that when I become a lich, I could no longer learn to fly

Still hoping for an update to these classes

If I already have a lich, would this update them?
