Requests For New Allies

Allies are split into humanoids, beasts and undead for convenience.

Start level : 10
Strength : 30
Dexterity : 30
Speed : 20
Weight : light
Size : small
Unarmed attack bonus : 6
Attack : 30
Defence : 26
Accuracy : 40
Traits : Humanoid
Tasks: : Study, Training, Potions, Poison Immune (Raise dead)?
Concept: More of a Front line mage, something better than Orc Shaman,
Purpose in game: Evil Human Necromancer to have a Decent front line magic user that can be recruited, No heals, No mana production.
Optional features: Female to add a few more ladies to the ranks, Raise dead ability would be cool if it worked like summon flies but only when surrounded by corpses, Requirements could include having graves and/or a specific amount of undead. Balance to be the basic equal of a Vamp but can roam in the day time?
Discussion:
- Maybe could be orc necromancer, to follow the idea of using greenskins as your minions? Female orcish necromancer sounds good. :) Could Raise Undead to temporarily create zombies from all corpses nearby, but those corpses would burn to dust after being destroyed or a short time, thus not giving you infinite minions. –Red kangaroo (/keeperrl_wiki/talk)

Discussion:
- This could be difficult to pull off visually because all sprites take up the same space. It’s already tricky to give mobs a sense of scale.
- Could we call it a troll as per Brogue-lore and make it a legendary greenskin? It would not be allowed to use ranged weapons, but it could carry heavy weaponry. Owen (/keeperrl_wiki/talk) 01:17, 27 February 2017 (CET)
- I like the idea of this being a legendary greenskin troll, maybe even the leader of the village? –Red kangaroo (/keeperrl_wiki/talk)
