Learning to wake the living (Necromancy Level 1)
Necromancy is often considered one of the most diabolical of the magical arts, though this is often because the people involved are quite grim and must have strong stomaches if something goes wrong. It is also one of the most difficult and therefore must be taught and learnt in stages. The first of these is HYPNAERAMBI, which requires a neophyte to get a sleeping human to full awake via magical spell. Often people cheat and magically conjure coffee directly into a person’s arteries which is very disconcerting and not really the point of the exercise.
In order to train, novice necromancers are often employed in hotels to practice on first thing in the morning, explaining why sometimes even the worst nights sleep will leave you up and raring to go.
