Necromancer

Why mess around with a middle man, when you can control the ghouls yourself?

You order your troops to attack, at which point the Ghoul King orders his ghouls to do likewise, as he attempts to slaughter his way through your army to get to you!

"Little necromancer, did you really think you could intimidate me? I am still more than a match for a mere mortal!" he mocks as jumps and leaps towards you.

Your troops have no noticeable effect on him. Their draining powers do nothing, though the scythes of the wraiths do some damage. You have to use non-necromantic magic against him and you cast a fireball into his chest.

It's enough to cause him to leap away from you and attempt to roll out the flame, but he kills two of your necromancers in the process. His ghouls are getting wiped out by your undead, but they're coming like hordes of lemmings, you have to kill the Ghoul King now.

"Blast the bloodsucker with fire!" you order your last remaining necromancers to do. Fortunately being ex-demonologists, their knowledge of fire magic is still quite strong. The Ghoul King attempts to leap out of the way, but the flame spells still hit him. He runs around burning and howling horribly.

Soon the wraiths put a final end to the Ghoul King with their scythes. The rest of the ghouls seeing their King dead, begin to run away in multiple directions. You manage to easily dominate most of them and corral them into your fold.

Not too bad, though losing a couple of necros wasn't something you wanted. At least not so early. You press on with your quest to conquer the Drozz tribes.

Weeks turn into months and your campaign there is goingÂ…mediocre. You did alright in the beginning, but after awhile the tribes began to unite in a way you didn't think they would or at least you'd think it would take longer. While mostly low in magic, they had more shaman and witch doctor types than you expected as well. They also know to start targeting you and your other necromancers whenever possible, which has resulted in you being the only one left and supporting the entire undead army. Given how long you've been without rest, lack of other magical enhancers, the constant drain and the large number of undead you're controlling, you could be over exerting yourself.

Your time here hasn't really been profitable. You've gained more troops, but you've lost necromancers and you still haven't really conquered the area. The tribes have been simply moving and hiding around the area.

You wonder if you should cut your lossesÂ…
