Statescraft 403: Three steps to implementing a 'revere your ancestor defenders' religion in a populace so they give you their dead for the army and slave labor.


Statescraft 201: Inspiring the populace now so their corpse will later have the skills you require.

You're not a cooool necromancer if you make your wands out of anything other than bones. Human thighbones work really well.

(Seriously, the necromancer in my current fantasy campaign has an enchanted flute carved from the thighbone of her mentor.)

How to love your Mummy by William Robinson.

Kudos to who can figure out the inspiration for the Writer name

*innocent look*

Adding another course because for some Necromancers, social skills and language issues may cause problems

Social Graces for the Aspiring Necromancer or why one should never use Necrophilia and Mummy in the same sentence
