Necromancers - one of the most popular types of magic users you'll find in any D&D campaign. Necromancers are typically evil wizards using the dead as pawns in their dastardly plots - but what if one was truly a kind soul?

Today, we start a brand new video D&D video series - Let's Build a Villain. We're going to homebrew our very own necromancer and go over the steps I work through when creating D&D villains.

The Villain created in this video uses D&D 5e stats but can be easily altered in order to suit any Dungeons and Dragon game, no matter what edition you prefer.
