Necromancer character

t. Necromancer
Name 1, ONE GAME!
If they were evil you're merely giving them punishment
It's the purview of God to punish souls, not men.

Well, powerful liches are capable of challenging gods

When they stop fucking with people's corpses.
i guess you're boned
So what? Conjure some magic dicks or something
I remember on /tg/ pasta, about a quiet but friendly old man who lived just outside the town village. He was well liked by the people, always had a hand to lend or a story to tell the kids. All in all he was a real pillar of the community doing odd jobs and some occasional smithing.
Well one day there was word that a band of roaming orcs or other such monsters was making it's way to the small hamlet. "We're doomed" they all thought. "We have no means of fighting them." One person said. Well our friendly old man, one night he goes to the mayor and he says, I can solve this problem but I need you to make sure everyone stays inside this night. And soon got to work.
The towns people did as they were told but they soon heard a rumbling and a roaring and a flash of light and curiosity got the better of them. They looked outside their windows and cracked their doors and they say it. An army of skeletons rose from the ground and assumed a marching formation. At the head of the parade was our friendly old man marching his army off to face the enemy. As the undead army headed out people couldn't help but leave their homes. "LOOK DADDY IT'S GRANDPA" one little girl cried, and as if it heard her the bony warrior turned and gave the small one a happy have and people erupted in cheers and cries of joy and encouragement.
The orcs never stood a chance.
Thanks for giving me an idea for a dnd session
cant be evil if you only make evil people into skeletons
shouldn't have attacked that village if you didn't want to be an eternal bone hoe field slave
Maybe some people want to be skeletons.
>Implying every necromancer pulls souls to reanimate the dead and doesn't just puppet the skeletons like a robot
CARLOS!
Why liches stop at being just flying skeletons?
At that point they may as well encase the bones into the most resilient metals and become a magic mecha or something
Most half decent liches will stick their souls in some other object that, if they're smart, will keep somewhere safe and offsite
You are a wise old wizard, searching for a way to have eternal life
Do you choose
>A: Lichdom
>B: Vampirism
and why?
Vampires are gay
the dnd game i'm a part of has a good necromancer.
it's a little girl who took up necromancy after her town was destroyed and everyone was killed. the dead aren't hostile, they don't even know they're dead, and they've since rebuilt their town with some help from our group.
Sauce?
Would any sane man choose being a faggy vampire over a chad lich?
let me see.
>vampire
>be a gay softboy for the rest of your life
>have to feed on inbred villagers to survive
>have a couple of shitty thralls from said inbred villagers
>can't fight head on, have to skulk in the darkness.
>a sharpened wooden stick will kill you
>live in a gay ass castle in fucking Romania
>Lich
>be an epic skele for all eternity
>feed off the very essence of life
>have an army of skelebros
>even the mightiest warriors will struggle to overcome your powerful magics
>almost unkillable, as your phylactery ensures constant revival
>live in an awesome-ass dungeon with traps and shit
the choice is simple my friends
Lichdom all the way. Vampirism comes with way too many flaws and you'll live a parasitic life and be found out eventually and murdered. The main problem you usually see with Liches is that they have lived so long that their bodies have rotted away to bare bones. That shows that they (or the magic involved) didn't properly care for their body. If the soul is properly housed in the gem/pendant/whatever then you could simply take over whomever tries to claim your phylactery. If your body is well maintained then you'll never need to.
One of ours was a lady from a formerly noble house whose ancestors revived their most loyal servants to act as teachers and guardians for their members to come. To her credit our necromancer since freed them from the mortal coil but her butler opted to stay as a skeleton for a while longer yet so he could keep protecting and teaching her.
