Default Re: Helping to represent a "fine details" necromancer

Those are some really good suggestions Anaraxes!

When going over limitations I realized an additional limiter that seemed appropriate, the Preparation required limitation. So making it like 3/day combined with 1 min prep. gives a good representation of having to concentrate on what is being said, think thoughtfully about it, etc (the prep part) while the limitation per day certainly helps capture the sense of being a "man of few words" or something like that.

I also agree with your point about the pact limitation being not a good fit in this case.

I like the idea also of capturing the sadistic streak bit as a quirk, because that seems to fit well.

Finally, I also think you have a good point about the undead and so forth. I suppose in this case the actual limitation would be something like "Don't upset the populace by exposing them to undead." Would that fit as a Code of Honor or something? Or part of a Code of Honor (Necromancer)? Though I'm unsure what the other parts of such a code of honor would be exactly.
