I would even go as far as use such a Necromancer as a low-level 'villain' in that being feared and loathed by most the PC's would be hired to deal with him only to meet up with a well meaning, but socially inept good-necromancer. <br/><br/>And depending on how the characters deal with him, he either grows into an ally or go completely Carrie on the game world and ultimately become the worst Lich-lord the world as ever known....<br/><br/>Hmmmm.... I think I need to open my DM wiki and take some more notes on this... I found that Specialist Wizards can make the most, hmmm, shall we say, ineffective characters.

VANIR LEARN!<br/><br/>That being said, people SHOULD gather up the kids and head to the local necromancer's. He has ice cream served in the skulls of the damned!

And how people would react to it. I also don't know ANY fantasy world that goes "oh hey! lets gather the kids together and go down to the local NECROMANCER!!!"<br/><br/>You were into the ELFudge again and nothing we could do would deter you from your chosen path. So we eventually had to find you a necromancer book. Which turned you into something less than the Mister Magoo of magic and more like some Schwartneggian magical behemoth.<br/><br/>SMACK!!!
