"Life is change, chaos, debauchery, and suffering. Death is peace, order, and eternal beauty."

Description: The Necromancers separated from the Mages. They study the magic of death to achieve immortality. Necromancers can control the spirits of the dead (ghosts) and raise the dead from their graves (skeletons, zombies).



- Also known as: Necromancers, the Walking Dead
- Colors: black and fluorescent green
- Deities: Necromancers worship the Primordial Dragon of Order, interpreting Her aspect of destruction in their own way
- Foundations of philosophy: "Embrace the void." An unhealthy fascination with death and fanatical devotion to the cause.
- Country / Kingdom: None (this is a secret society that hides within the states of the Mages and Humans)
- Capital: None (for the same reason)
- Main emblem: spider-mother

Necromancers believe that all pleasures are sensual (tied to one of our five senses) and that every pleasure leads to pain (the bad feeling from overeating, grief for deceased loved ones, etc.). Therefore, the solution is to embrace death, which is perfection due to the cessation of sensory function. Necromancers believe in an eternal, unchanging, indifferent life, preferring it to abstinence and moderation in everything. The highest Necromancers become Vampires, eternally young, beautiful, and powerful, but just as cold and insensitive as alabaster statues.

On the battlefield, the Necromancer's troops are generally weaker than their opponents. But the cost of the undead warriors is lower, as their recruitment depends less on "material" resources. And Necromancers often turn out to be stronger precisely due to a simple numerical advantage. But in addition, the Necromancer's troops compensate for their relative weakness with other abilities. All inhabitants of the Necropolis are Living Dead. The laws of morality do not apply to the dead: they cannot be inspired by the prospect of victory, they don't care, but they are also not afraid to die. They cannot be poisoned or otherwise affected mentally - because they are already dead and have no consciousness. In addition, some of the Dead can drain the life force from their opponents or remain invulnerable to non-magical attacks.
