The Necromancer is a role specific to SLASH'EM.
Necromancers are quite similar to the wizard role. Like wizards, they are
relatively poor fighters with low HP and strength, but good spellcasters.
Their pet is a tame Ghoul, which is very slow.

Strategy
- Necromancers should dump their Quarterstaff as soon as they find any kind of Dagger or a Dwarvish mattock.
- You may want to abandon your Ghoul because it is slow. If you want to keep it, find a magic whistle so it can keep close to you.
- Increase your Skill in Dagger and Pick-axe first then increase your Spellcasting. The skill dart should not be increased in order to save skill slots.
