I am making a Gestalt Dread Necromancer Favored Soul of Nerull in a game. This is a bit of an epic game, and the DM plans on the characters eventually ascending and gaining divine ranks. Anyway, I have taken many of the Corpse Crafter feats, which enhance the undead I summon and create with certain abilities.

My question is this. At level 20 I become a lich. Technically I think I make myself a lich so would I benefit from the corpse crafter feats? I have not seen any ruling on this and was just wondering what everyone thought about this.

I don't know by heart where I can find the Corpsecrafter feats, so if you tell me, I'll look in to it.
From the wording in the Dread Necromancer class, I'd say the feats don't apply, since you become a Liche, not make yourself one. But that's just semantics.

You can't "just" become anything, necromancer makes himself a lich, so I think they should apply.

Have you read the Dread Necromancer's ability description? It says that he turns into an undead, using words like "symptom".
Also note that he doesn't become a Lich like the template.
In the end, it boils down to how the DM interprets this. However, by the rules as they are written, I don't think the Corpsecrafter feats apply, since they only apply to undead created by a Necromancy spell, no?
