== {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} Overview==
'''Necromancy''' is a combat skill that focuses on creating undead and wielding dark magic. Most necromantic abilities will do '''no damage''' to undead enemies. Necromancers must have an item with a "Necromancy Gem" equipped, and they usually have to be in a graveyard to summon skeletons.
=== In-Game Description ===
Necromancy is control over the undead, along with other powers that trifle with mortality. To use necromantic abilities, you must be wielding or wearing a necromancy gem. You can often find these on weapons, and less often on pieces of armor. (If you are in a beast form, necromancy gems in weapons won't work, but ones in armor will.)The in-game description of the skill goes here.
=== Training {{msg:BASEPAGENAME}} ===
<!-- A list of methods to learn and level the skill -->
* The skill is first learned by going into the [[Serbule Crypt]], defeating [[Khyrulek's True Form]] and delivering [[Symbols of Darkness|an item she ]] from the boss's drops to the [[Pulsing Crystal]]. When you do this, you will be given a "Necromancy Test Staff" and a "Necromancy Test Necklace". Both have necromancy gems in them, so you can choose one to equip and start using Necromancy. * [[Azalak]] teaches '''Create Super Zombie''' 1-3 * [[Sir Arif]] teaches '''Free Summon Skeletal Archer''' 1-3
* [[Jumjab]] teaches '''Heart's Power''' 1-2, '''Wave of Darkness''' 1-5 '''No Longer Teaches Super Zombie skill merged into Raise Zombie'''

* [[Daniel Murderdark]] will unlock Necromancy 51-60 , unlock 61-70, and teach level 51+ abilities* [[Bendith the Banished]] can unlock 71-80.* [[Zeratak]] will trade you a Necromancer's training staff for 4 brain bug lobes and 3 brains* Levels 81-90 may be unlocked by gaining favor with a mysterious entity deep beneath [[Povus]].
