: '''Details:'''
Using your command of the energies of death, you are able to wipe a forest area clean of plant life, replenishing some of your essence. Be warned though, there is an essence cost to this ability, and unless there is a sufficient amount of plant life in the room, you may lose essence using it. It should also be noted that an exterminated room is no longer considered a forest room, so many Druidic abilities will not work in such a room.

Essence cost to evoke it: 2.5%
Soulspear allows the skilled Necromancer to form a weapon forged in the soul of the dead. By taking an adventurer corpse, you can form the soulspear. A corpse from an adventurer level 30 and under has too weak a soul to form such a powerful weapon out of. Beyond that, the higher the level of the victim, the more powerful the soulspear.
Once you have it, you may throw it at someone who is outside your room, anywhere in your line-of-sight. It will shatter shields and prismatic barriers, or, if the person lacks one of those, the necromantic energy will be released, summoning forth hands of the grave in your victim's location.

: '''Details:'''
This ability allows for swift travel across the land. You must initiate the activation from a room where hands of the grave have been summoned forth.
If your target also stands in a room where the hands grasp at the living, this travel is instantaneous. If the hands are not present, the target is required to be a practitioner of necromancy, and the travel will be delayed.

This allows you to take the form of the deadly blackwind. While in this form, your freedom is severely limited, but your ability to be harmed is also severely restricted. After you have become the blackwind, you have the nefarious ability to slip down a victim's throat and CHOKE him. While in blackwind form, you will lose willpower very quickly as you strain to hold your nebulous form together. HUMAN is the command to return to your normal form.

Evil as you are, you find yourself enjoying live experimentation, preferably on people you know. Once your victim is splayed out and helpless, meaning all four of his or her limbs are withered, you may perform your experiments, killing your victim in horrifying agony.

::: 2% - Deactivate soulcage
: '''Details:'''
This is perhaps the greatest of the necromantic abilities, and carries with it the greatest life essence cost. It allows you to spin a web of life essence around your very soul, protecting it from death. Soulcage may only be used once every 6 Achaean days.
The soulcage can be deactivated by raising a barrier of life essence between it and your soul, preventing it from saving you from death. It may be reactivated later for a much lower essence cost.
SOULCAGE STATUS will show the current state of your soulcage, if any.
