Undead Control Q

[Gribble]

Do any of you guys know under what circumstances a magic user would lose power over undead under his control? I know under the rules it states that control becomes permanent. My reason is, I'm modifying the Beacon At Enon Tor module and I want the poor feebleminded wizard to have gotten eaten by his 2 necro buddies, which of course the PC's will walk in on what's left

By CK fiat, of course! If it suits the game, go for it.
Feeblemindedness seems a good explanation.

Perhaps the wizard was attempting to play a game of chance with his undead minions. When he lost to one of his thralls, he remarked in a snit "Bite me!". The rest is history.

Could be a nice triumph for the cleric character? A battle of wills over control of the undead.

A successful 'turn' check for the cleric could give the character a moments control over wizard conjured undead?

Just a thought.

Cool, I was just making sure there wasn't a rule I missed that my players could become a rule lawyer about.
