Hello everyone, I deeply follow GWs lore and I wanted to create a Charr necromancer but, because of some “fitting” problems I can’t bring myself around to do it.

After the battle between the Flame Legion and the other legions, charr magic wielders are no longer to be trusted by Blood, Iron and Ash, because of the Shaman caste.

How would a necromancer fit into all of this? Wouldn’t all the legions consider me weak or someone who should not be trusted?

I know nothing like this happens in the game, but in my mind it does.

Magic users aren’t trusted as much as technology is, magic is still recognized as powerful and useful.

just don’t go around worshiping grenth or other powerful creature and you should be fine.

Yes and no.

I see your point, but remember that not all flame legion are magic users, just the shamans. Since magic doesn’t equal flame legion this shouldn’t come as an issue within your warband.

Cancer is also a Zodiac sign.

Agreed, magic is still used by the charr – they don’t seem like the types to turn down a perfectly good weapon at their disposal (much like the Romans who have partly inspired their lore). I just don’t think they want to be reliant on magic. The way I would play it would be that if anyone accused him/her of messing with Flame Legion magics, he/she would just have to do something creepy and awesome to make the point that it’s powerful, so aren’t you glad I’m on your side? That seems very charr!

As said above, don’t worship greater powers, and don’t go around saying your magic makes you better than anyone else, and you’d be fine. Having said that, my friend does have a charr necro who was runt of his litter and is a bit of a pariah for his creepiness, so that can work in a warband too.

As a side note, alot of Ash Legion NPCs are necromancers.

Magic is often tied to Flame Legion for alot of charr because the Flame Legion had the strongest magic users out of all the Legions. The other Legions however recognise and value magic even if they arent particularly comfortable with it. Of course opinions will very a great deal from charr to charr.

Then that just fits perfectly, I started my charr in the Ash Legion so he can feel comfortable inside it.

Thanks for the input guys, I guess I can run with it now
