Necromancy

Necromancy is a rare style of magic that draws some similarities to Summoning.

Necromancers call forth the shades that dwell within Spirakai to do their bidding. These shadowy creatures are generally capable of assisting the necromancer with battle, their chilling touch destroys mana and burns away flesh.

However, this is not the only use of necromancy. Some use this power to contact certain souls in order to gain information. If the necromancer is powerful enough the shade may actually provide it. Folks with a cruel heart instead attempt to create enchanted items with the shade's mana, forever locking it in place and causing it great agony.
