Spellcasting. The necromancer casts one of the following spells, using Intelligence as the spellcasting ability (spell save DC 15):
At will: dancing lights, mage hand, prestidigitation
1/day each: circle of death
2/day each: bestow curse, dimension door, mage armor, web
Multiattack. The necromancer makes three Arcane Burst attacks.
Arcane Burst. Melee or Ranged Spell Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft. or range 120 ft., one target. Hit:25 (4d10 + 3) necrotic damage.
Summon Undead (1/Day). The necromancer magically summons five skeletons or zombies. The summoned creatures appear in unoccupied spaces within 60 feet of the necromancer, whom they obey. They take their turns immediately after the necromancer. Each lasts for 1 hour, until it or the necromancer dies, or until the necromancer dismisses it as a bonus action.
Grim Harvest (1/Turn). When the necromancer kills a creature with necrotic damage, the necromancer regains 9 (2d8) hit points.
Wizards pursue magical power through the study of arcane texts. Some travel the world searching for esoteric tomes while others train lesser wizards or collaborate with colleagues to create new spells.
