» Mon Jun 25, 2012 3:41 am What are your views on Bethesda adding a joinable Necromancer guild? Its possible as Necromancy and conjuration are practiced openly at the College of Winterhold without punishment. My idea is that once you progress further through the ranks you have an option of becoming a Lich. The Lich would look like the skeletons who wear the black cowls and you would have to capture souls using soul gems in order to sustain yourself. This wouldn't be a transforming ability like the Werewolves though, once you are a Lich you stay one!
Each soul you use to gain power would increase your spell effect or damage output, so if you used a petty soul gem you would have a 5% damage increase whereas if you used a grand soul gem you would gain a 25% spell damage output. Your Lich would be able to use melee weapons or magic, but magic would be his strong point. The dragon shout sound files could be swapped so you would sound like a draugr when shouting, they could also add new conjuration spells into the mix as well as new weapons.
However if you were an Argonian or Khajiit they would have to create new skeleton models as the beast races don't have Human skeletons... This is just an idea but ever since Oblivion with the king of worms i've wanted to join the Necromancers, i personally think it would be a great DLC. For those of you who would rather role play a good character this DLC could allow you to join the Viligants of Stendarr and allow you to destroy this guild. The Viligants hate Daedra worship, all things undead and they have their own headquarters so it would make sense for them to fight. Thanks for reading
