The Necromantic School

== General Description ==
Necromancy, while old as healing magic as a whole, is not listed as a proper school of magic anywhere but within legal discussions on the topic. It’s practice is outlawed in every land within Equestria, including places where their knowledge of magic is loose at best. The exception happens to be the only reliable place to get information on it, the Somnia Republic. Other than that, the Unicorn Palatine is the only place within Equestria where written documents can be found and consumed, as it’s “history” that must be preserved.
There are no properly listed specifications of necromantic spells, leaving little nuance within legal discussions about how heinous the crime is. Beginner spells include corpse beautification while more complicated (yet still harmless) ones include commanding resurrected zombies and anything to do with one's soul. The highest level necromancy spells, the ones that turn the caster into a husk of their former self, involve fully reviving a dead pony. These fail more often than not.
