And yet, when necromancy was part of the play test materials, the flavour text for an at-will power was to capture souls and use them up. It was SO evil (by any definition, I'd argue), and was presented without any nuance. A necromancy specialist should be able to be of any alignment and be able to use all the spells. But it should also have a wider range than D&D has traditionally allowed.</blockquote>
