There is not any classes in PS!  So, you can call yourself whatever you want...not that everyone else won\'t call you something different.... ;)

What ever class/skill it takes to become a sort of swiss army knife for spells.  What? did you forget your sword let me conjure one for you.  Need to attack faster, poof there you go.  Need to be invisible, poof there you go.  What your dead? poof there you go, now your alive again.  Your room is not clean? poof there you go!

Ok maybe that last spell is a bit too powerfull.  I am sure it will be nerfed when the game goes into final.

Um, yes. Everything to do about a necromancer is evil. A necromancer who isn\'t is sorta disgrace to necromancers. (No offence to wannabe good necromancers) A necromancer who is evil is hated by most non necromancers. (See every fantasy RPG game and fantasy book in history.) Necromancy is the fobidden magic art. E.g. Forbidden by other magic users.

You just said there are no evil necromancers, and now say there are.. :P So there are good necromancers, and their craft doesn\'t have to be evil since there is black necromancy and white... (black being the animating of the dead, and white being healing and the like) so being a necromancer doesn\'t necessarily make you evil..

lol, a good necromancer isnt really a necromancer, as u are supposed to have to be evil to cast.  And lol, u should look up necromancy. Their is no such thing as white necromancers. Necromancy is the art of raising the dead as eternal zombie skeleton servants, not healing. If u want to heal, be a cleric. :)
(btw, as this game is roleplay u can call urself a good/neutral necromancer if ye wish, it\'ll add a bit of strangeness into the game. :) )

\'Um, yes. Everything to do about a necromancer is evil. A necromancer who isn\'t is sorta disgrace to necromancers. (No offence to good necromancers)\'

ahem, quickly changed that one, lol. :) :)

Ever played D&D??? You would notice that most healing spells have necromancy as their governing magical ability... And I\'ve never played any game where you have to be evil in order to cast necromancy spells... And if you translate necromancy into danish (which is my main language) it means \"?ndemaning\" (Summoning of spirits/communing with spirits) which is also something necromancers are able to in lots of games, and fantasy settings...

And I stand by the point that necromancy doesn\'t necessarily have to have anything to do with \"evil\"..

I\'ll practice the skills necessary to become a great merchant - and sell all you others swords and wands and potions ... prime retail locations, high-rises, franchises, security, etc, etc.   :)


and when my empire collapses I\'ll be a bum and share a bottle with Kiern.

I didnt know that, I dont play D&D much. All I know is that games like NWN and baldurs gate which use D&D rules have Cleric as the healing class. You cant heal at all if you choose necromancy.
Also how come in alot of RPG\'s (for example Lionheart) if you choose to be a necromancer you are seen as evil, and also you are scorned by other mages for practising the dark arts? Maybe this just varies in different games, no really niether of us are right or wrong. lol

necromancy is two sides of one coin, both healing, and renewal of life

good nec-heals and brings person back to life(soul in tact)
the \"healer\"

bad nec-(drains and brings person back(although generally mindless like a zombie));
the typical \"necromany

it all matters on wether r not you are reffering to the general class type or the school fo magic like divination and divinative magic, two different things yet sound much alike

edit: i know... i\'m good like that
