What is a necromancer?

Before considering what you would like to name your character, it’s important to take a step back and understand what necromancy is. Generally speaking, a necromancer is someone who practices witchcraft by using black magic or sorcery to communicate with the dead. As a result, you should expect the names of Necromancers that pop up in Diablo 4 to be those that signify malicious witches and warlocks. As a class in Diablo, Necromancers have an emphasis on ranged gameplay and assists. While they are capable of surviving in close quarters combat by fending off foes with their scythes, Necromancers would much prefer to cast magical spells that poke at enemies from a distance. In Diablo 4, Necromancers can generate their Essence resource over time, allowing them to cast their special spells more frequently. In addition, they can collect a secondary resource from defeated enemies known as Corpses. By accruing Corpses, Necromancers can create an undead army of skeletons that can do their bidding in the midst of battle.
