[@OneGlassNail]

He knew that he would never get a chance like this again. He had studied necromancy his whole life and did things that he could never be forgiven of. But here, here was a chance for redemption. Nobody knew what had brought them here, those things of darkness and death. They were a stain on the land and would soon consume all life. That is, unless he succeeded. He had evaded them for this long, and had found precious scraps of information that had brought him here. They had fought these things before, in centuries past, and perhaps could do it again. It was the only hope. He, like all who still lived, knew their names; Karthann, the Unyielding, who held back the tide of demons before. Dante, who had been a shadow in the night to them, the blade that they never saw coming. Farenaal, who had woven the magics that sent them back to whence they came. All knew of them, none knew that they were buried here, in this unmarked cairn. He could hear the howls as they split the night. They were closing in, he would not survive the night, but maybe some would, and could fight the things. He took a deep breath, steadying himself for what was to come. If he had lived at their time, he might have fought against them, but he knew that they alone could help. He took a deep breath and stepped into the crypt.

What you discribed reminds me of an old video game, Overlord, the plot, You, a former warrior who fell in battle, and was risen by little imp like monsters, under the control of the former overlord, using you to hunt down and kill the former heros, who thought they killed the original overlord, i know not exactly like what you said, but this is what i was reminded of.

Or the hero's themselves brought back by a lich

[@gasterblaster9817]

@@the97thsurvivor46 Another game this song is reminiscent of is Iratus: Lord of the Dead, the plot of which focuses on the dread necromancer Iratus, who was accidentally unsealed by greedy mortals who dug to deep, and his ascent back to the surface as he regains his full might, with the final boss being the spirits of the heroes who sealed you in the first place. The gameplay is very reminiscent (or derivative, depending on who you ask) of Darkest Dungeon, with Iratus acting as both the Ancestor and the Heir, and Iratus's necromantic abominations acting as the heroes you send into the eldritch meat grinder. As a twist on DD combat, since _you_ are the one with the nightmare-inducing monstrosities, the enemies are the ones with a sanity meter that can cause them to lose their minds if lowered too far

[@happynihilist2573]

Odly enough this song makes me think of necromancer respecting dead Heroes to fight an Evil monster; I don’t get the vibe of evil zombies threatening our heroes... The song’s still EPIC though!! 🤩/10 Seriously GOOD GOD is this good!!! I’ve literally listened to this on a loop for hours

"Now, now listen. I'll cut the ropes after I explain why I brought you back. Your bard doesn't react well to getting woke up"

[@asuna411]

This song gave me an idea for a d&d character. Traumatized youth turns to fallen cleric who promises the ability to return those he loves from death. After years of dedicated training as a cleric and developing a decent level of skill ( lvl15)he finds out that theres no way to return his family to life. He suffers a massive psychological break. He loses his faith, his connection to his deity, and almost his humanity, before discovering necromancy.

[@travis9841]

Quick question, what God would you say this cleric worships/worshiped? I could either use this as a backup character or a mini BBEG in my campaign.

[@asuna411]

@@travis9841 here's what I have storyboarded: The fallen cleric was in service of Helm or Lathander or at least Eldath. I would have the hero gain the favor of the deity for the acts of service he does under the tutelage of the fallen cleric, but the favor he gains is not enough to bring his family back for some reason or the god instructs him to let his family go. The hero is not willing to do this, and the fallen cleric suggests a "holy ritual" that any warlock or sorcerer in the party would see through with a moderate DC as a necromantic rite. The cleric, still in favor of his deity, gathers the items to perform the ritual dutifully, and then the fallen cleric guides him through the ritual. Halfway through, the hero discovers the true purpose of the ritual is to prolong the fallen cleric's life or something... haven't figured out something compelling enough yet. The hero loses favor with his deity, his powers and abilities and the choice he has is to either accept a fallen clerical existence (possibly with no way to become a cleric again because the ritual tried to curse a god or something)or pursue other avenues which leads to necromancy

[@yaksher]

I had a story idea loosely inspired by this song (mostly the "We'll be the risen champions // Back again from the dead" lines), so for anyone interested. The main character is a brilliant necromancer (either "good" necromancer who defiles the dead but doesn't actually harm anyone, or possibly evil but still choosing to save the world; I'm leaning towards the former, so a chaotic good necromancer) who discovers a looming threat to the world somehow or other (possibly related to being a necromancer, possibly not; doesn't really matter), and realizes that the world is not prepared. They need a hero and they don't have one. Obviously, attempts to warn people don't work when you're a wanted criminal and your only evidence is magic rituals of your own design, unverifiable because there's nobody in the world who could understand them (and if they could, they'd probably be an equally untrustworthy necromancer). So they design a solution. True resurrection of heroes past. Normally, you can't truly resurrect someone long dead (the necromancy just utilizes the remnants of the "soul body" or whatever, the interface between body and soul which contains some power and thus lets you animate undead worth more than what it took to animate them), but the same is not true for heroes and other legendary figures whose souls remain tethered to the world (in the Hall of Champions or something), either by the collective wills of people or by some higher entity (leaning towards the former, but again not really important). In order to do so, however, they need to retrieve bodies and relics and whatever else they can of those heroes. Furthermore, the ritual needs an absurd amount of power. I like the idea that they're chaotic good, and as they go on they realizes that they'll need to kill thousands to perform the ritual, and has to choose to go on anyway because otherwise the world's fucked. Story ends with necromancer dying, killed either by the summoned heroes or as fuel/conduit for his ritual.

[@gallus8960]

Maybe that’s just part one? And part two is the heroes saving the world?

[@yaksher]

@@gallus8960 I mean, sure, but that's like every story ever :P

[@gallus8960]

Yaksher Hmm, fair enough, but what if the heroes kill the necromancer, and then have no idea why they’ve been resurrected? So they have to find out why they’ve been brought back? Maybe the necromancer’s story is like a flashback explaining to the heroes why they’re back from the dead?

[@yaksher]

@@gallus8960 Out of character for the necromancer not to plan for that eventuality.

The song feels spot on with the picture in the video, since the depiction of it came from The Elder Scrolls Online. Three Alliance Heroes (the players) facing the same godly enemy before the Ruby Throne, that each of them try to claim for their faction, and that enemy is the Daedric Prince of Domination, the God of Schemes, where he enslaves all mortals and immortals he can grasps. Almost all the mortals that bound to him are either they voluntarily submit or the dead been resurrected and become mindless thralls. Most of his minions are masters of necromancy. He's also the father of vampires since the 'blood' originally came from him. His realm, Coldharbour, is reek with decaying bodies and rotting flesh, which also shaped as a form of imitation to Nirn (the mortal planet), but already touched by his delights and desires. With a little help of his dedicated mortals, he's able to gain access to Nirn and aiming to merge and turn it into his own domain. which the three heroes, try to prevent. Keep on the creation, Avi.
