Movuz, God of Necromancy

Movus, God of Necromancy is a Lawful Evil God from the Pantheon of Magic. Unlike his counterparts, Movus is not the patron god of any dragons, rather he became the patron god of Liches. Many see Movus as one of the most evil deities as his followers desecrate graves, but Movus does not require or even encourage the desicration of graves. Necromancy is the power over lifeforce, and is in fact the school of healers. Many of Movus's followers do practice the raising of the dead, but some of them seek consent from family, or even the person before their deaths and simply use corpses as another tool. Many volunteer to have their corpses used by necromancers because they see it as a way they can continue to help their family or community after death. And as far as the clerics can see, a skeleton, or zombie, or other undead is no longer connected to the soul of the one who passed, therefor it does not int erupt anything in the afterlife. This appears to be proven true as sometimes folks who have died have been known to have both a ghost and a zombie.

Movus can be found in most temples of magic, and does have some of his own churches. He is also occasionally the patron deity of some hospitals, but that is usually only in places that are more accepting of all forms of necromancy.
