Necromancer (Skyrim)

Necromancers are are mages who specialize in the conjuration of undead creatures. They usually have raised undead lurking inside of their lairs. Necromancers tend to conjure minions to attack you, then sit back while they do the dirty work. Most of them can reanimate undead, summon familars, and summon flame atronachs. The most common drop from a necromancer are the necromancer robes ,which increase your magicka regeneration rate by 75%.

Unlike Oblivion, the MagesCollege of Winterhold does not frown apon the study of necromancy and respects it as a school of magic.

Equipement and Combat
Necromancers do not use armor, but Enchanted Necromancer robes. They usually will pull out a dagger if you come close, but like to keep a distance and let their minions attack. They carry scrolls, healing and magicka potions, maces, daggers, and sometimes, more commonly at higher levels, staves. Some of the spells that they use are Sparks, Frostbite, Conjure familiar, Conjure Flame Atronach, and Flames.

When you are detected by the Necromancers they will usually summon undead or an atronach to attack you, the use sparks to drain your Health and Magicka. When alone these mages are easy to defeat, but when the are in groups they can be a menace. If they are in groups kill the Necromancers and their summoned creatures will usually die with them.
