TIL: Necromancer class flavor details

[a_gnome_collector]

So many metaphors can be derived from an instrument of torture and the necro class. Call me a bit of DnD junkie, but if you follow lore on Liches, the seniormost are essentially decomposed to everything but a skull. In eq, the backbone of the class is the lich buff line, where you sear off your flesh for mana. flesh is but an illusion, and so too is pain. what lengths will you go for necromantic power?
