     The Necromancer is one who deals with the dead. They delve deep into the darker arts of magic in a constant struggle to create half-life.

     Do not confuse this path with diabolic evil, for this is not the intention of most who begin to feel seduced, lured in by an unseen power, shortly after committing to this path. The art of the dead is aligned with the darker things in life, yes, but is not evil in an of itself. The blame of falling into evil paths, wherein diabolic deeds are concieved and executed, lie solely upon the shoulders of those too weak to resist the borbidden. The path of evil is a sought after path, as is the path of good. What one does with this darker power will depict his or her align, not the the mere learning of molding the dead to their every whim.
     They say that one who studies the art of death eventually becomes swallowed up therein, evolving into the dead they study and work upon. What do they know you will become! Return to top
