Necromancers do not rely upon Faith or the supernatural: Since Necromancers routinely deal with Life, Death, and states in between, the concept of worshiping gods and awaiting an afterlife rapidly loses meaning to them. Death is merely another state of being, and gods – if they exist – are models of power and wisdom to be emulated, not worshiped. Thus, instead of Spiritual Points, Necromancers use Body-Mind-Spirit points when using their powers.
Necromancers are limited to natural armour: Like Rangers, Necromancers prefer to wear armour that is mostly composed of organic material. Thus, the heaviest normal armour a Necromancer can wear is studded leather. Similarly, Necromancers will not use heavy metal shields.
Restrictions upon weapons: as with the Ranger, are lighter. A Necromancer will have no problem using common swords, maces, bows, and so on, but a two-handed sword or halberd is out of the question.
Necromancers can detect the Undead: Necromancers have a base percentile chance of detecting Undead forces in the local area equal to their B-M-S score. This chance of detection increases an additional 2% for every level the Necromancer gains. Thus, a level 7 Necromancer with a B-M-S of 12 would have a 26% chance of detecting Undead forces. This power gives the Necromancer the general direction and distance of the Undead, as well as a sense of how powerful and numerous they are. The range of this power is 6// plus 1// per two levels of experience. The use of this power costs ¼ point of Body-Mind-Spirit.
Necromancers have resistance to Death Magic: Necromancers have a 10% resistance to all Death Magic effects. This resistance increases at a rate of 1% for every level the Necromancer gains. Thus, a level 7 Necromancer has a 17% chance of resisting – and thus ignoring – Death Magic.
Necromancers have a resistance to Disease: Because of the gruesome and often biologically hazardous nature of their work, all Necromancers have a 20% chance to resist any disease. In truth, the Necromancers who were unable to develop this natural resistance didn't last very long in the profession.
Necromancers can Affect Undead: Because of their knowledge of the foul Undead, Necromancers can affect these creatures with an effective potency somewhat less than that of a Priest's.
