Spells

As will be closely explored in Chapter Four, the greatest powers of the necromancer arise from spellcasting. Like all specialists, they gain an additional spell for each available spell level, when compared with generalist mages.

This bonus spell is reflected in Table 2 (which appears on page 11) and must be devoted to memorizing a spell from the school of Necromancy (listed in Appendix 2 at the end of the book), or else it is forfeit. Thus, at 1st level, a necromancer could memorize two 1st-level spells (whereas general mages can memorize only one), provided that the bonus spell was from the school of Necromancy.
