The Necromantic Spell Canyon is a mystical place enveloped in darkness and mystery. This unholy location is rumored to possess powerful and forbidden magic, specifically necromancy. Located deep within the heart of a desolate and treacherous canyon, the Necromantic Spell Canyon is shrouded in an eerie mist, creating an atmosphere of dread. Legends tell of the souls of the damned haunting these depths, trapped between the realms of the living and the dead. It is said that the canyon holds ancient scriptures and artifacts, providing immense power to those who dare to venture into its sinister grasp. The pages of forgotten spells and incantations can be found embedded within the canyon walls, awaiting an intrepid seeker.

It also leaves room for at least two different classifications of undead: Naturally occurring undead are tormented souls that return under the force of their own will. As you note, a properly interred and consecrated body can keep them from rising. If they do manifest as undead, they can often become quite powerful free willed horrors, based on their living power and the strength of their tragedy and hatred. Animated dead are not the essence of the slain, but a necromantic potential of some kind. They are often of extremely limited intelligence, because they lack the motive force of an angry spirit returned from the grave. More powerful necromantic effects must be cast upon a body that matches to a lost soul that doesn't have quite the potential to quicken its own rotting form. Individuals that died at peace might have their body turned into a mindless creature, but are generally thought to be immune to eternal torment as a thinking undead unless corrupted in some way before passing.

Some of them are animated by spirits summoned by the houngan, and who s to say that those spirits are the original ones who inhabited those bodies before they died.
The pages of forgotten spells and incantations can be found embedded within the canyon walls, awaiting an intrepid seeker. The spells contained within these pages are said to defy the natural order of life and death. Necromantic rituals involving the summoning of spirits, reanimation of corpses, and manipulation of life force are believed to have been performed within the canyon by powerful sorcerers of old.
Thread: A good necromancer?
What behaviors would one would need to avoid to play the suggested "non evil" necromancer.
As a grognard, I fall in the camp of, "What you talk'n 'bout, Willis?"
So, as you can expect, I'm quite averse to just handing out the necromancer path to wizards.

Reviews for "The Ethereal Caverns of the Necromantic Spell Canyon"
1) Sarah - 1 star - "Necromantic Spell Canyon was a complete disappointment for me. The story lacked depth and the characters felt one-dimensional. I couldn't connect with any of them and found myself struggling to stay interested in the plot. The writing style also felt clunky and forced, making it difficult to immerse myself in the world the author was trying to create. Overall, I found this book to be a waste of time and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone."
2) John - 2 stars - "I had high hopes for Necromantic Spell Canyon, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. The concept had great potential, but the execution fell flat. The pacing was inconsistent, with long periods of boredom followed by rushed action scenes that left me confused. The dialogue was also stiff and lacked authenticity, making it hard to believe in the characters' emotions. The author seemed more focused on shock value than creating a cohesive and engaging narrative. I was left disappointed and wouldn't read another book from this author."

The plot was convoluted and difficult to follow, with too many unnecessary subplots and side characters. The world-building was underdeveloped, leaving me with more questions than answers. The writing style felt amateurish, with awkward sentence structures and repetitive phrases. There were also several editing errors that took away from the reading experience. I wanted to enjoy this book, but it fell short in too many areas for me to recommend it."
