Once fully built, you’ll get to act almost like a party all your own, with a horde of “mini-characters” that turns the action economy on its head.
A necromancer has a (mostly) unending supply of disposable undead minions to fight for them, protect them, and do whatever needs doing. It’s fun to flip the script and play the archetypal villain every once in a while, but what makes necromancy any good? As we’ll get into later there are many mechanical routes to the necromancer play style, but the goal is very simple, minions. In any case, necromancers are usually on the villainous side of any D&D adventure, but there’s nothing technically stopping you from raising up some zombies to do some good work. Or perhaps they’re simply a spellcaster that truly believes “waste not, want not”.
They are often depicted as brooding and craven practitioners of dark arts, delvers unto forbidden knowledge and unholy heretics going against everything that is right and just. A ghoulish merchant of flesh that commands the dead rise again and do their bidding. Grab a shovel and head on down to the cemetery as we go through everything you need to know in this necromancer 5e guide.Ī “necromancer” in 5e terms is strictly a wizard who specializes in necromancy magic, but broadly the necromancer is a character of any class that specializes in raising the dead. Not a class exactly, necromancy is a school of magic, a strategy, and a commitment to black cowls and skulls covered in dribbly candle wax. Death doesn’t have to be the end your mortal remains have all sorts of uses! While normally reserved for the villains, D&D players can just as easily get into necromancy and dig up an undead army to call their own.
