NECROMANCERS
The dark | Manipulative | Tricksters | Misleading

Necromancers are once again simply humans who have either A) began working with dark magic or B) sold their soul to a demon and instead of having their soul taken by hell hounds agreed to become a Necromancer to live.
Most necromancers are evil, though there has been record of a few necromancers who use their magic for nothing but good, so they're not always evil but after a while the power they have gets to their head and changed them completely.
Necromancers are more nocturnal, mostly because most of the creatures in the light of day do not accept their kind so they lurk about at night.
When a necromancer brings someone or something back from the dead, they usually have a special connection. The spirit will be like a pet to the necromancer, doing anything the necromancer says and would die for the necromancer.
Although necromancers specialize in bringing back the dead they can do some enchantments like witches and use some other spells.
Although only witches have familiars a necromancer can summon a pet ghoul. Unlike zombies or spirits ghouls are not beautiful looking and are usually quite ugly with a bony body and missing hair and limbs that had been sewn on and sickly colored rotting skin.
Raising the dead takes a lot of energy so necromancers are only able to raise the dead once every 5 days or they would die from lack of energy
Like witch's magic, necromancer magic does come with a price. Depending on how complex the spell is depends on how large the price must be. The smallest can be a droplet of blood and the largest may be a life.

Weaknesses

How would you kill a human? Well thats how you kill a necromancer. Necromancers are normal humans, only they know how to preform spells.

Most necromancers live for several thousand years, either because they sold their soul or because they use other humans body parts to keep alive but they are kill able.

Necromancers can get illnesses though their bodies are more immune to them as they deal with dead people and sick people all the time so their bodies have become used to it.

Necromancers and witches are good rivals, and although other necromancers magic isn't as effective against necromancers because they may know how to deflect the spell witch magic is very effective against necromancers.

Allies and Enemies

Evil witches and Necromancers are strong allies, both of them striving for the similar goal of simply bring pain and agony and bringing on the apocalypse and set the demons free and wreck havoc on the world, more importantly the island.

While evil witches have an alliance with necromancers, good witches strive to earn the trust of the humans and shifters and wolves. They aren't usually accepted amoung the humans, shifters, and wolves unless they have proven they are pure and so are enemies with necromancers.

Witches and necromancers could care less about each other, so necromancers don't bother wolves and wolves don't bother necromancers.

Despite the bond evil witches have with necromancers, spirits hate everyone except their own and the ones who brought them back, or their "masters" as they call them. So necromancers and spirits have a very strong alliance.
