>>Without making this too tangential, how do The Children feel about Necromancers? Or is that where they suddenly develop morals (the fools). I wouldn't say the sect has a unified viewpoint. There are lots of different personalities and viewpoints from those drawn to the Children. For the most part the two don't traffic with one enough much, they both have large enough problems already, but there's some cross over. See Thee Mottl'd Tyxte for some discussion, but the line between Sorcery and Necromancy tends to be vague in indirect references like that. Also, Necromancy is rooted in life magic and the Children are rooted in lunar magic, so their areas of magical research only overlap in a small slice (mostly Lay Necromancy). Of course, the lore that supports most of that crossover is from the Rigby era where Necromancers were going to be very different then they ended up so take it with a grain of salt. For example, Lasarhhtha was going to be a necromancer guildleader for a long time and several of the spells in their spellbooks were related to the Children directly (I want to say one of them was called Kalestraum's Dark Rift and there was Bonegrinder). -Raesh
