I'm a bit stuck on what to do, to be honest.  The Devils' preparations have pretty much rendered me unable to do anything.  If the room wasn't flooded in magical darkness I'd be able to see the web markers Elvas placed down and Glitterdust the devils, but since it is, I can't see anything that's going on and am completely unable to act.<br/><br/>As for getting an army of the dead...  Undead Leadership?  I've heard the Dread Necromancer class gets some class features that make it a good leader for undead armies, as well.<br/><br/><br/>Edit: Having looked it up in Heroes of Horror, Dread Necromancer definitely seems like the class of choice for anyone wanting an undead army.  Eight levels gets you an absurd boost to your control limits on Animate Dead and Control Undead, and continuing on in the class from there can get you the best Necromancy spells off both the Wizard and Cleric lists via Advanced Learning.  It seems like a class with some interesting potential, overall. ^^
