| Necromancy is a special mode of
divination (q. v.) by the evocation of the dead. which is the Italian, Spanish and old
French form, the term suggests "black" magic or "black" art, in which
marvellous results are due to the agency of evil spirits, while in "white" magic
they are due to human dexterity and trickery. The practice of necromancy supposes belief
in the survival of the soul after death, the possession of a superior knowledge by the
disembodied spirit, and the possibility of communication between the living and the dead.
The circumstances and conditions of this communication such as time, place, and
rites to be followed depend on the various conceptions which were entertained
concerning the nature of the departed soul, its abode, its relations with the earth and
with the body in which it previously resided. As divinities frequently were but human
heroes raised to the rank of gods, necromancy, mythology, and demonology are in close
relation, and the oracles of the dead are not always easily distinguished from the oracles
of the gods. HOW TO USE NECROMANCY
Necromancy is a magic involving a different
aspect of life after death. A necromancer must first have the ability to communicate as a
medium. Often, simply through the process of thought. Old forms of necromancy developed
the concept of the "undead" : Souless corpses with a determined set of mind,
given by the Necromancer. To manifest this power the Necromancer, must have developed the
skills through several years, or have been born with the ability. Modern forms of
Necromancy also involves spiritual manifestation into the prime plane of reality. The
Necromancer conducts the spiritual feinds with a sole purpose.
Reaching a connection with the death involves
much concentration and focus, if this isn't balanced correctly, the Necromancer may fall
victim to the spiritual fiends of the undead. |
