I like it too, although I wouldn't bother to restrict it to NPCs. It doesn't seem like it would be of any particular use to a Player Character (certainly not in Combat, anyway), so if they want to waste development points on it, let 'em.

Besides, allowing it could provide Employment opportunities, grifting money on the side between adventures, putting the locals in touch with their dearly departed.

Story opportunities, too. Suppose Nigel the Neighborhood Necromancer oversells himself to a pub of highly impressionable townsfolk, and the resident feudal lord gets wind of the story — so Baron Witherknee decides that Nigel is just the man for the job of clearing out that pesky haunted cemetery, where people keep disappearing and horrible sounds are heard at night.

And of course, Nigel cannot turn the job down — unless he'd like to admit that he's just a glorified cell phone.
