What source is the Necromancer class from?

djc664 · May 2nd, 2015, 01:19 PM

Trying to modify Azaven from the new RotRL Anniversary set, and the class is shown as Necromancer... can't find it in any of my sources though. I tend to remember classes from past D&D versions too, so I feel like I should know the answer but it just never comes up in the class list within Hero Lab.

Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

d20pfsrd seems to indicate that it is a "focused school" from the advanced player's guide.

Correct Focused schools changes the name of the wizard class. So an Illusionist is as Wizard focused on Illusions. A Necromancer is a focused in Necromancy.

Actually, it is the Thassilonian Specialist Wizard archetype, from the Rise of the Runelords and Inner Sea Magic books.

I'm trying to create a Gluttony (Necromancer) Thassilonian Specialist and I'm supposed to get the choice between turn undead or command undead; it defaults turn undead. Also, whenever I try to pick any channel feats, like command undead, it says I have to have the channel ability to be able to pick that... any idea what's up and what I may be doing wrong?

On the Wizard tab, click on the blue special abilities button, on the list you can choose between 'Turn Undead' or 'Command Undead'
