Physical Description
General Physical Condition
The Necromancer is a sickly looking individual. He is quite thin and has very pale white skin. While not very tall, his arms and legs are disproportionately long and he has long spindly fingers.
Facial Features
The Necromancer has small icy blue eyes which sit quite close together on his face flanking his long but thin hooked nose. His lips are thin and very pale and his chin is so small as to be almost nonexistent. Pockmarks cover his face and it is evident he is not, nor was he ever, a handsome man.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
The Necromancer appeared in the Anwin Peaks without explanation or any clues about his history before this. He began raising undead, small numbers at first, and attacked villages near the foothills of the Anwin Peaks.
His activity went unnoticed at first, with two villages under attack simultaneously. One was burned down completely with the populace slaughtered and made into undead servants, while the village of Wexberg was saved in the nick of time by the Thunderguard, a mercenary company which had luckily been passing through.
A small number of undead had wondered south from the battle and attacked a farm north of the village of Hurfield, which alerted the travelers staying at the local inn. They defeated the undead and were hired by the local lord to journey south to the town of Loughdorn and inform lady Dana, who could field a small army.
While lady Dana refused, this discovery still led to the Necromancers inevitable downfall, as the party of travelers decided to oppose him further, attacking his castle with the Thunderguard, who got defeated in the process. They witnessed a large undead army numbering in the thousands beginning its march south towards Loughdorn.
Loughdorn would mark the Necromancer's final defeat, as his undead army was held off at the gates and the party of travelers managed to infiltrate his camp, attacking him in his tent. He escaped into a pocket dimension and used summoned creatures and various traps in an (eventually futile) attempt to save his life. He was finally defeated and the party emerged victorious to find his undead army collapsed and his various apprentices either dead or scattered to the wind.
