Necromancer Lord
From Warhammer - The Old World - Lexicanum
Necromancer Lords are immensley powerful Necromancers. [1a]
Most necromancers are haunted and hunted men and women, who often end up as a snack for a vampire, a animated corpse for their master or as raw ingredients in a horrific ritual. Those that survive and grow in knowledge and skill are often caught between the mortal world and the spirit world, driven insane and twisted in form by their use of dark magic. [3a]
Weapons and Equipment
Often they are armed with a Dagger or a simple Hand Weapon but some carry Halberds or similar Double-handed Weapons and many have an array of Magic Items. Necromancer Lords may ride to battle upon undead monsters or Nightmares [1b]
