Necromancy determines how easily you can call on the unsavory power of death itself. It also influences how much bonus damage you can inflict with a pain brand weapon. Characters under the influence of the Necromutation spell (itself of the Necromancy school) receive a bonus to this skill, as do Mummies who rise sufficiently high in level.
Using Necromancy has more consequences than other magical schools, as certain Necromancy spells have risks or side effects for the caster beyond the usual chance of miscasts. Necromancy is also considered unholy, and the good-aligned gods punish its use severely, as does Fedhas Madash when it is used on corpses.
