Necromancy and Undead; A much needed update

[Chance]

Not allowed to Learn Necromancy

Undead struggle to channel necromantic mana for self purposes because they're bound to their Necromancer, but it's not impossible. Just very difficult.

Not allowed to become a Witch 

True. Their soul is bound to their Necromancer and cannot be contracted.

Not allowed to become Human/Alive

True...? Maybe? It could certainly be a goal.

Not allowed to Eat

False. It just has no nutritional value.

Not allowed to learn Faith

True. Faith is based around the pantheon, and channels the lifestream. Undead are creatures of rot and decay, the anti-thesis of Faith.

Not allowed to Break away from their Necromancer (Though, why would you? You'd shoot yourself in the foot)

False.



Restrictions do come with the territory, but it seems like a lot of this is sort of putting yourself into a box based on what you've heard. Which is often misinformation or irrelevant when it comes to a good story. So hopefully that clears it up somewhat.

There are restrictions of course because, well, they're Undead. Just like Demons have theirs, and so on. Making them more mechanically interesting isn't really relevant to said restrictions.
