"Never heard of me, eh?! Well after tonight, everyone in this village will know the terror of Cecil of the Sinister Skull and his monstrosities of doom! Hmmm…..yes….that will do nicely."
——Apprentice Necromancer, practicing an evil monologue
Typically preferring black robes with white trim, the Apprentice Necromancer has turned to the Eldritch practice of manipulating life and death to gain power. Not fully trained as a master necromancer, they are still capable spell casters, and can debilitate enemies by draining the strength from them, or simply burning and bleeding the life from their victims. Their ultimate goal is to gain enough skill with Necromancy so that they can summon undead minions to do their fighting for them. These casters are almost always evil in nature and prefer to align themselves with cults of other like-minded individuals to gather knowledge and power.
