Necromancers hold the secrets of life and death. They are immortal magic users who raise legions of zombies and seclude themselves in towers.

Necromancers initially learn the arcane arts from engraved tablets received from the gods - they often write numerous books, occasionally describing the secrets therein. Necromancers may also take apprentices and teach them the secrets of life and death.

Powers

A necromancer can raise any remains which are capable of becoming an undead. These servitors join the necromancer in fights, and are the main cause of his dangerousness. Necromancers also do not age, enabling them to amass years of experience and become formidable opponents if they are so inclined.
