The novice Necromancer has many things to learn while on his journey to greatness.

All aspects of the Necromantic arts must be learned and mastered before he can
realize his potential.

One aspect that may have been overlooked is the raising of skeletons.

The novice Necromancer may think that the Raise Zombie spell will only work on corpses
that still have an amount of flesh attached. Hence the term, zombie.

The wise Necromancer understands that a skeleton is merely a fleshless corpse.

A skeleton may be raised to serve the Necromancer provided it still has all of its
bones attached together.
