Necromancy is the dark art of death magic. At the lower levels, there is an assortment of rather nefarious abilities. Soon though, the ability of Cannibalism is gained, a skill which has inspired wide-spread fear of those practicing Necromancy. Through cannibalism, a Necromancer increases his life essence, which powers the higher abilities. At the very highest level, a Necromancer gains the power to protect his very soul from death. | |||
The ability to regain the [[life essence]] necessary to use Necromancy may be sealed from individuals by the [[Dread Ecclesiarch of Transvital Corruption]], should they prove themselves to be directly against the ideals of the [[Lords of Evil]]. One who has undergone this process is said to be in [[anathema]]. | |||
'''Necromancy''' is practised by the [[Apostate]] and [[Infernal]] classes. Once practised by the [[Occultist]] class as well, the skill was abandoned with the rediscovery of [[Occultism]] in the [[Modern Age]]. | |||
Apostates also practise the skills of [[Evileye]] and [[Apostasy]], while Infernals also have the skills of [[Chivalry]] and [[Weaponmastery]]. | |||
