Didn't archmage Traven, or whatever his name was, die? If so then the Mages guild might not oppose Necromancy anymore. If thats the case, I'm not sure if it should be its own skill, or just have it's own spells within Conjuration or something. But it would be cool to kill somebody, then depending on their level, and attributes and skills, they would turn into a Skeleton with those feats. Maybe once your powerful enough you could cast a spell on a body, and it would split their soul and their corpse, then you would get a ghost or wraith,
and a skeleton or zombie. Then another high level spell would just be area effect, gather like 3 or 4 corpses in one area, and resurrect your army!.. I think it would be worth it, and not too hard for Beth to add in, if they wished so.
