The afterlife may not be the worst thing you see when you die, there's always a chance you wake up. And the first thing you could see is a red robe...

  2. Red Officer - Officers are now helping fill the ranks with standard bodies without help, and reporting elite bodies to the Hoard Master.
  3. Red Officer Apprentice - Apprentices are helping with the actual spells and should have a good grasp of the spell to be able to pull it off.
  4. Red Journeyman - Journeymen are now helping gather whatever is needed for spells to watch how it's done. They may even retrieve the bodies.

  7. Necromancer - A basic necromancer, uninitiated and taking their first steps in the discipline.

Culture

The Red Robes focus is on protecting their home from the physically superior Barbacks, who have allied with men. They believe the focus on frontline warfare is useless when you have so many dead who have fought that fight already.

Public Agenda

Their goal is to collect enough bodies of famous combatants to create an unbeatable army.

History

The Red Mages were the best necromancers the Drusaderi had to offer. But their talents could not match the brute strength of the Barbacks. They decided to go further by creating a new school of magic. Sanguincy allowed more than necromancy could muster even at their best. It could even the playing the field and bury in their favor with the right subjects. The Red Mages have caused fear to spread their name far past the reach of the Drusaderi. Their are stories of evil mages taking your soul in places that have never heard nor seen of the continent of Danaila.
