The Lorekeeper's Tome

The Necromancer walks a road the other callings will not: the arcane art of death itself. They raise the dead to serve a while, drain the life from the living to feed their own, wither the strong with a word, and command the walking dead that a Cleric would turn away. It is a domain no one else touches, and in a world dying by slow degrees toward the Drawing, the Necromancer walks perilously close to the very thing the journey is meant to resist. That friction is the point of them. They draw a darkness about themselves that some of the Light's faithful cannot abide, and the practice of the art tugs at the soul of the one who practices it. Yet there is no other who can do what they do.
