**Overview**

**The Necromancer** is a mysterious entity that traps the Greens and Oranges in his lair. He was one of the main antagonists of season 2, though his presence was felt as early as season 1.

**Personality**

```

The Necromancer is a powerful, manipulative, and dangerous being. He has the ability to control the biological functions of living creatures to a great degree; i.e, he can start or stop your heart, freeze your muscles, knock you out, or even bring you back from the dead. However, his power has some limitations; he cannot resurrect someone that HE killed, only those killed by other means. Why this limitation exists is currently unknown.

The Necromancer treats everyone else around him with some degree of fairness (at least, when not angered). He does not bother to inflict needless harm; he simply gets what he needs from a person and then is done with them. However, he is constantly cold and humorless. He only displays emotion when angered. When roused, his rage is great, and his powers can kill you in many nasty ways. He even treats his accomplices with disregard, viewing them as only tools completely under his control. This is what allows the Odd Men Out to escape his grasp when Mack unexpectedly turns on the Necromancer. Mack had correctly realized that the Necromancer would just use him and throw him away; this same realization is what caused Butler to reject the Necromancer's offer of an alliance.

As shown in season 2, the Necromancer resides in a lair in an unknown location, possibly underground. The lair sports a two-way teleporter and has the ability to change at it's master's will. It consists mostly of dark halls made of industrial metal, and contains at least a series of holding cells, an interrogation room with a nearby security control center, a master control room, and a housing for the teleporter. The lair serves as the main setting for the second half of season 2 and is destroyed in season 2 episode 19.

The Necromancer's involvement with the Odd Men Out stems from the fact that he is looking for a very powerful being, and he thinks that the Odd Men Out know where this being is. Despite this, none of the Odd Men Out seem to know who he is talking about. Flim insists that the Necromancer is the reason (or part of it) that the Odd Men Out were formed in the first place; someone needs to stop the Necromancer from inflicting great harm upon the world at large.

The Necromancer seems to have access to knowledge of the cosmic type; he reveals to Leo that both Heaven and Hell are real. This suggests that the Necromancer himself may come from either of these domains; at the very least, he knows a great deal more than most people alive. His special powers and agelessness further hint that he is greater than any other observed being. However, he is not all-powerful; while he does not age, he is susceptible to bodily harm such as being shot, though he managed to survive the detonation of his entire lair. He also apparently cannot control the body of more than one being at a time. Regardless, the Necromancer is a very lethal being when angered and is not to be trifled with.
