The Necromancer is an Unholy/ Eldritch boss that appears in the Ruins. Freed from the trappings of their humanity, they plied their terrible trade anew: the dead reviving the dead, on and on, down the years. I brought my colleagues back with much of their intellect intact - a remarkable triumph for even the most experienced necromancer. Having learned all I could from my visiting guests, I murdered them as they slept. I entertained a delegation of experts from overseas, eager to plumb the depths of their knowledge and share with them certain techniques and alchemical processes I had found to yield wondrous and terrifying results.

Who could have divined the prophetic import of something as unremarkable.

I began in humility, but my ambition was limitless. Mastery over life and death was chief among my early pursuits.
