Necromancer

The Apprentice Necromancer / Necromancer / Necromancer Lord is an Unholy Boss that appears in the Ruins.

History
According to the Ancestor, the Necromancer was once one among  a group of wizards and scholars who were drawn from overseas to meet with him and discuss various techniques of necromancy. Once he had learnt everything he could from them, the Ancestor killed them in their sleep. As a testament to his magical abilities, the Ancestor reanimated them all with much of their intellect intact. However, this cost them all their sense of morality. The Necromancer then set about bringing back the many ancient corpses under and around the estate, the undead creating more of the undead in an endless procession. The Necromancer took over the Ruins, guarding it with its vast and continually swelling army of the undead.

Behaviour
The Necromancer starts in rank 1. Each time he uses an attack he creates a Skeleton in rank 1, steadily pushing himself back until he is in rank 4. His attack does not have to hit a hero in order to trigger this ability - therefore the only way to stop him summoning a minion in a turn is either to stun him, or for there to be 3 of them existing already.

Unlike most unholy creatures, the Necromancer has low resistance to Bleed.

Abilities
* Summon Sekeletons ability has following chances of summoning and will occur regardless of the abilities land or not:

Strategy
The most recommended way to deal with this boss is by having a character take care of the Bone Militia that are spawned, while stacking bleeds and focusing the other characters on the Necromancer. As long as you don't let him move out of your hit range, the battle should have no other issue than stress, as his attacks aren't particularly devastating.
