Uh, hi guys! Newish necromancer here. I've been practicing with stuff like disrupt undead when I'm out with my friends "adventuring" (more like hanging out in creepy places, ya know?) But I thought I'd try something more interesting since I'm getting experience... well, let me explain. I went to the graveyard yesterday night (I know, so amateur) and found an old grave that I figured no one cared about and raised a skeleton (first time, I did it!). Problem is, I don't think I know how to control the drat thing. It just sort of putters around and follows me. Even into the privy! When I tell it to do something it kind of stares at me but doesn't move. I feel like there's a trick to this that I'm not getting. I like my skeleton (I named him McCoy) but I need advice on how to control (train?) him. Any and all advice welcome, we're supposed to go to the crossroads in 3 days to fight gnolls or something so speedy replies appreciated!

Thanks guys! I'm looking into spells with more control and MAN O MAN there's a lot I didn't realize! This is pretty exciting and I think I might try a zombie next. Oh yeah, I tried the eye socket thing and I think it kind of worked? I can go to the loo and it waits outside anyway. Step in the right direction! My friends are cool, they're why I stated necromancy! I've known our barbarian for a long time and he's real fun to tear poo poo up with. We're banned from a few pubs 'cause of that guy! Hey, does anyone think I can lift one of our pub bans if I raise a skeleton of that barkeeep Kronark... uh... liberated of his head? Or is that a bad idea? As you can probably tell I'm totally new to this! Magical edit: Who What Now posted:Also, to any new necromancers, don't think you have to supplement your Evil magics with the powers of Chaos. Anyone who tells you you have to is lying. Lawful Evil magic is equally as strong, and Neutral Evil is as pure as you can get. Don't be peer-pressured into channeling an alignment you aren't comfortable with. We're not all Abyss Knights, we accept magicians of all alignments! Wait, seriously? I wish I knew that sooner! I'm way more neutral evil and pretty bad at chaos. KillerJunglist fucked around with this message at 19:09 on Aug 31, 2020 |

magic cactus posted:casting chill touch on my youtube music playlists to turn them all into lo-fi hip hop beats to relax/raise the dead to I tried that once and it turned all my tracks into chill ambient. I... fell asleep while raising a zombie and when I woke up she was one of those half zombies like you see crawling around. Still useful, I threw it into an open window at the inn. Hi-larious!

One time I cast suggestion on a druid and had him try and teach me that secret druid language they speak. Dude got kicked out of being a druid and he's like an alchemist or something now. I still don't understand that stupid druid speak tho.

Okay okay, apparently this is the dark wizard TALK ABOUT DRUIDS thread. But seriously, any you bad guy magic slingers ever work with an anti-paladin? I worked with one and whoo! Way too intense for me. She used to call me "basic evil". After seeing how much trouble she would go through to be "advanced evil", I'm totally cool with being basic.
