What an extremely satisfying end to this short saga, it reminded me a lot of Arcanum with their long lived dwarfs that would come across as conservative in their scientific progression because unlike the relatively short-lived humans, they would still be around to experience the consequences to their technological breakthroughs.

your dwarves can become necromancers in fortress mode, just raid a necromancer tower for their books and youll probably find one, and if you have a library your dwarves will slowly become necromancers (its REALLY buggy, i had a goblin thief that was resurrected by my goblins 20,000 times, and would try to steal from them every single time they were resurrected, leading to an infinite resurrection loop that killed the fortress)

For more information on necromancers I recommend "The Empire of the Necromancers" by Clark Ashton Smith. It's a wonderful short story that exposes how a pair of necromancers can build an empire, and lose it soon after by their own laziness.

So that big scary called the master was probably a demon. You can learn their true names and recruit or banish them, leaving the goblins leaderless. I recently had a world where I recruited a male/female pair of bull demons and had them settle down and start a family with my dwarves. Took a bit of dfhack but it’s really fun to mess around with. You should do more adventure mode content!

If i had understood it correctly, necromancers have two types of resurrect spells; 1. Raise "dumb undead", which raises a dead creature back to life, but it will be hostile to everything, including the necromancer that raised it. 2. Raise "intelligent undead", which will raise a dead creature back to life with their former allegiances intact and capable of receiving complex orders. Usually friendly to the necromancer that raised it.

@@egoalter1276 Makes sense. You just got killed by someone and then 5 seconds later you find yourself resurrected by that same person, with your memories intact, and expecting to take his orders. Like bro, do you expect me to be nice to you after you killed me? **** off necromancer

I messed around on adventure mode as a necromancer and i found out a few things. 1. Multiple types of raise dead spells possible that give different type of undead. 2. More powerful raise dead spells can raise intelligent undead that have their own spells and powers. 3. Intelligent undead will be hostile to player if you killed them. If you get them in your party and they your friend but die to an enemy then raise them they will remain your follower and friend. 4. intellegent undead only possible from named huminoid creatures only basic zombies from anything else. 5. Lastly real easy to get overpowered by getting 1 or 2 intellegent undead and running in wilderness killin critters for zombie horde.

If you save before entering the tower area and then just spend a couple of tries to sprint in there and find the book , you can become a necromancer without already being undead. Still a vampire necromancer is much more edgy than regular necro

The lesson that Dwarf Fortress ends up teaching, I think, is that necromancers are not really alive,. They are undead themselves, as dead as the zombies they raise. Upon learning the secrets of life and death, they lost their living force and soul, diminished their creativity, and were left with no living, breathing drive beyond a simplistic and lifeless obsession for schemes for power. Why be a cook or a warrior if all the people you would cook for, for whom you would fight, are puny mortals you know you will outlive? Why do anything today when you can do it on a tomorrow that will always be there?
