Re: I think it's safe to say Marnie was a full-fledged necromancer, considering ... kHz1000 Send a noteboard - 06/09/2011 08:34:20 AM
But Antonia said it herself, she turned to necromancy only to ward off disease in her village, even going as far as holding death at bay to save lives. This suggests to me that it can be learned.

Oh, yeah. Damn, that's true.

Also, the reason for all the Latin incantations for the necromantic spells were because necromancy was actually pretty "popular" in ancient Rome. It was mostly used by priests of Roman gods to divine the future via animal sacrifice and intestinal readings.

I doubt the writers thought of that. Most of the spells in the books were in Latin, too. It just sounds better to chant something in a language nobody understands but everybody still recognizes.
