Necromancers have varied beginnings - they could be a mage who became obsessed with forbidden magick, a gravedigger who practices macabre rituals that one day go too far or they might have a history in medicine and experiment on cadavers. They often work as loners, and their only companions are usually the zombies they raise from certain death. The Necromancer is a reanimator of the undead, a lord of abomination and black death. Necromancers are not dissuaded by dark magick and delve into practices and rituals that other mages avoid. Their practices are taboo or forbidden and this often finds them cast out by society or shunned altogether.
Raisers of the dead and students of necrosis, Necromancers occupy various alignments but their work is always viewed skeptically by outsiders. Reclusive and dangerous, these spell casters are often seen as evil but, as you will find, that is not always the case. Unlike DnD, which provides little insight on Necromancy, Elder Scrolls is teeming with dark magick and the Ordinator perk mod provides a variety of ways to play this class.īe sure to check out my other class guides: the Barbarian, the Knight, the Paladin, and the Cleric :) For this one I borrowed from popular fantasy concepts and Elder Scrolls lore. They live between the world of the living and the dead, wielding strange necrotic power. It is a fabled class, a character obsessed with death or, at the very least, adept at commanding undead forces. This is the third installment in the Ultimate Character Creation Guide and this time we will be looking at the Necromancer.
