Necrotic Thunderer[edit]
Stormy Beginnings[edit]
The necrotic thunderer is a mage that has learned to imbue undead creations with mystic lightning, increasing the strength, durability, and intelligence of their creations. What creates a necrotic thunderer is a humanoid being born in close radius of a skull charge, a rare spike of magic across a ley line(or whatever system the dungeon master uses) that fills the newborn. Around adolescence, the creature begins to hear things in their mind when around sites of the dead, such as crypts and graveyards. They then manifest the ability to bring small creatures back to life, a common example is rodents. These powers are chaotic and powerful, but can be mastered with time and patience, until the user can strike out with the precision of an arrow.
