In battle there is always a chance a unit will die. So it's good idea to save your goth and go to a Witch Den to revive them. This can also be done with an item called 'The Tome of Resurrection'. At the end of any mission, if a human character is left dead, they have a chance to join the ranks of the undead, if you have the equipment available! Once a unit becomes undead, they can never return to their previous classes.

Basic Undead Class

The basic Undead class can be a nice unit to have. If they die during a battle they will automatically resurrect themselves. This does have one negative affect. If the finishing blow is from a Holy based weapon or spell the unit will be Lost. This is the final death of the unit and they can never be recovered.

Angel Knight Class

The Angel Knight and Seraph are some of the hardest obtainable classes within Ogre Battle 64. A lawful female character must die at the end of a mission in order to get an Angel Knight. Getting one is completely based random probability. You must also have all equipment available for this class; Needle of Light, Kite Shield, and Plate Mail. Angel Knights can be obtained for a short time with the item love and peace. Mission 26: " The Bearer of Knowledge", at Celesis, is the first time Angel Knights can be recruited with this method.

"To get the Needle of Light:
  • This item will only be available once you've reached Chapter 3. Send a unit to Dardunnelles, Melphy on the 21st of the month. You will be able to purchase the Needle of Light between 9:00 in the morning and 18:00."

​
To get the Bloody Emblem:
Once you've got the Count's Garment, it's time to get the Bloody Emblem. First, you need to pick a unit with a leader with N or C alignment (under 49). Send this unit to Elgorea on the Mylesia map. When you investigate the town, the leader will encounter a Vampire who will ask four questions. Only if you answer all four correctly will you receive a price: the Bloody Emblem.
