Help|Classes|Necromancer

These magic-users have chosen a path of evil for their studies. They specialize in the control and use of negative energy in their magic. They are known to be able to create zombies, drain the life from their opponents, and to kill with a single word. They are also known for assorted maledictions involving controlled bursts of negative energy. Nearing the pinnacle of their power Necromancers may attempt to transform into a Lich, an undead being of great sorcerous power. Being undead, the Lich will never die of old age though their physical form may still be destroyed. The transformation (or "Becoming") can be attempted after the Necromancer quests for the ingredients to their elixir of death. The transformation is not without risk, however. Many that quaff the elixir have been permanently crippled or have utterly destroyed themselves in the process. The elixir may only be brewed at 47th level (Spectre) and the transformation is necessary to reach greater power (also see helpfile for LICH).

The prime stat of a Necromancer is Intelligence, and some of their abilities are: Animate Dead, Greater Undead, Vampiric Touch, Power Word: Kill, Summon, Forget, Gravesight, Crimson Scourge, and Wraithform.

The only races that may learn the necromantic arts are Humans, Half-Elves, Half-Drows, Dark-Elves and Arials.
