Necromancer Spellbook..please he

[ZR]

I have to get an Necromancer NPC together quickly and would like a spellbook that includes quite a number of spells not in the players.

I want to have that "what is going on?" "what are we up against?" "Oh &%$&$$!! " effect.

Does anyone have a spellbook for a higher level necromancer that they wouldn't mind shareing??? I only have the PHB so some discription would be necessary for spells outside the book and of course home brew.

Thanks in advance

How quickly is this needed? I'm playing a pure Necromancer in one of the games my group is doing (between 3rd and 4th level spells, I have 13 spells from other schools), and a great deal of it is cobbled together from other sources. Magic of Faerun has a few decent spells, and Beyond the Grave is one of the best necromancy sourcebooks ever...fitting, as it's all necro, all the time.

Particular favorites:
Chill Blood - 1st level, does a small amount of damage and stuns victim for 1 round.
Shadow Horror - 3rd level, inflicts minor damage, Str loss, and stuns victim.
Shadow Mastery - 3rd level, reduces the effects of magical healing and makes negative energy effects wielded against the victim both harder to save against and more damaging.
Invigoration of Undeath - 3rd level, gives zombies under the necromancer's control Improved Initiative and removes their partial action restriction.

While it's not a spell, the Death Touch feat from Beyond the Grave is quite nice...for a relatively minor risk, invoke the Death domain ability all you like.....

Make contact if you need more info...not sure how detailed I can get on the boards and all.

Beyond the Grave has lots of yummay spells. One that allows you to Graft Weapons onto your undead, another that coats them in an elemental force giving them a bonus to AC, as well as doing 1d6 points of elemental damage per hit.

Another spell gives you the ability to cast spells through a designated undead (Touch spells, whee! Not to mention using it as a 'window' for area effects).

Also, in Tomb and Blood:
Negative Energy Burst: 3rd level energy burst does 1d8+1/level (cap +10) of Negative Energy in a 20' radius burst. Best for undead bulstering and hurting the Living.
Negative Energy Wave: 4th level, makes undead harder to Turn.

Thanks guys,

Not in the hugest hurry....(I have a few weeks). Thought it would be nice to get a "real " book.

Beyond the grave sounds good.
