Campaign idea: The party at lvl one gets sent to kill a sort of brigand, a minor noble whose family has been disgraced and is now taking it out on the neighboring duchy. He’s very big physically but nothing special so they win fairly readily. They move on, but the guy’s nerdy brother doesn’t. He comes back from a decade spent studying abroad, and uses necromancy to bring back the brother. He makes his brother into a revenant, unkillable, coming back stronger after every defeat within hours, trying to kill the party constantly, but at a walking pace.
That strip has been resurrected more times than the corps in the last panel
A necromancer is a healer with really shitty timing
So when a public transport manager plays RPG and tried to pick a healer?!
In some fantasy settings, including DnD before the 3rd edition, healing magic is classified as a part of necromancy.
necroposting is part of the art of digital necromancy
First time I’ve seen it
This is real friendship.
Turns out the friends were the corpses we “found” along the way!
we made along the way…
Is Necromancer a Race now?
Yes, and also Warrior.
Obviously, because humans are not one of “those” races.
Correct.
In first edition humans could pick classes but elves and dwarves followed their race progression, much like how levelling monsters works in 3.5
For you 5.0 BABIES they more less just functioned like a class named after their race.
(I didn’t actually play 1st edition so anyone feel free to correct my second hand grognard lore)
