Class Request: Necromancer

[Zantetsuken]

As Frion stated, Necromancer has been generally treated as an 'evil' job in the FF games and thus relegated to enemy use only with one exception.

In FFV:advance, a player could become a necromancer, but it was a far cry from the undead horde summoner that is a cliched staple of any western RPG. Rather, the job allowed the player to cast forbidden magic and actually become undead himself. (an approach I might actually support)

My guess is that this brand of necromancy isn't what the OP and other necro fans are requesting...

Western style Necromancer? (No, Thanks)

Besides being able to control the dead, and being a master of various poisons what else can a Necromancer do? As far as anything I have ever read for Necromancers ever, they only know how to summon/charm/control undead and poisonous magic.
