Soulstone is a level 18 warlock ability. It stores a player's soul, allowing that player to resurrect. If the target is dead, it resurrects them.

Notes

If the stored player dies, they will be offered the opportunity to reincarnate on the spot, or to be released as a ghost in the normal way.
Soulstone can be used in combat.
