[QUOTE="LegionError121, post: 6986013, member: 6870641"] I think I should do "ok" within the morally gray stuff as Cantrap spells are a thing :) I think my weirdest ambition after becoming a Necromancer though would be to get access to Cleric Magic :) I want to find ways of continuing my character through stories by means of preventing aging or that thing people do by transfering to Clones :) So a Teifling Necromancy Cleric . . . that's going to be a challenge :) Is there any way a Necromancer can "let the dead rest" so I could bring an allie back, make it fight and then take him/her to a cleric later for revival? Of course, I would be held responsable if said player's corpse was destroid beyond repair :) I think I know the key differences between Wizards, Sorcerers and Warlocks, but can you play as a Necromancer Warlock or a Necromancer Sorcerer? :) A better question about Necromancers fighting Dragons :) Can you "fear" a dragon? :) As for what I have in mind for Tieflings, I want to convert my previous little "Muffin" into a Tiefling :) The Idea would be that one of her Grandfarthers made a pact with a Demon within the Astral Plane to make the next daughter in the family "beautiful and gifted" :) However, there is no "right" answer to that and uses the various obsessions floating around in the Old Man's head as references :) As a result, "Muffin" would be born with some very peculiar and exotic traits such as having 5 eyes (2 of which would be humanoid and the other 3 would grant her night vision or whatever you call it), hooves and horns (cause the dude liked goats), a bizarely defined body which unerves people but is oddly attractive and basically :) NPCs would gradually become intrigued by her appearance in the same way people find appeal in the fur patterns of Lions :) As for my group, I would say they are "by the book" :) I would say that I can "currently" trying to find something that works "by their books probably" and my precious little Muffin may be way into getting involved :) Especially if I can summon things that go berserk and then they could kill them for bonus leveling :) I'm just trying to figure out what is "helpful" about Necromancers because I don't want to just "life steal everything in sight" but I also don't to "tap everything on the shoulder and hope it dies" :) [/QUOTE]
