"It's not necromancy!" Actually his family name is "Hicks", but when you practice the black arts you have to take any opportunity you can to squeeze an "X" into your name.
"I got 99 Problems, and a Lich is One!" Bring out your dead! Or, well, your nearly-dead. Undead big bads feature at the end (or caramel center) of every scenario! Plus, it makes the filking easier. ;)

Doctor Hix smiles, and points to his little skull ring, which Poppo later explains allows Hix to act "evil" and break the rules "within academy statutes."

The party eventually returns to the Academy that evening (via the Guts) to prepare for the following day. Professor Hix watches them arrive from the door of his subterranean office and smiles at them evilly before sliding back inside.

The man looks at the party suspiciously. "I see." Hix taps the side of his nose and smiles evilly. "Be seeing you."

"Sorry old man. College statues and all." The man turns to the party. "Hello, I'm Doctor Hix, Professor in Post-Mortem Communication, DThau, Impissimus Holder of the Silver Skull."

Prof. Poppo nervously hurries them along through a maze of doors, and passages until they run into a patch of darkened corridor that doesn't reveal itself to the lantern and then very slowly the dark fades and man can be seen standing there. "Up and about Professor Poppo? Does this mean you are feeling well enough to join us for Sunday practice?"

"'I' sir? 'Who am I?' I am Professor Johnathan Hicks (though I pronounce it 'Hix' because it sounds cooler), Head of the Department of Post-Mortem Communications at Lepidstadt University. I have a doctorate in Post-Mortem Communication, I'm a DThau alum, and am an Impissimus Holder of the Silver Skull (third class). That is who I am, sir!" dice dice baby:

The pale professorial man in the black turtle neck and cape strides purposefully the two steps it takes to get to you table. "So I suppose you could do better, eh?"

A pasty-looking man in dark clothes and a black cape takes to the small stage and begins a short reading. "Ahem." Make one knowledge check and open all the spoilers below that apply to the result. Knowledge (local) DC 12+:
The man is Dr. Johnathan Leucrotta-Hix. He is apparently involved as an actor and writer in the local theater community. Knowledge (local) DC 17+:
He is also a professor at a local magical college where he heads the Department of Post-Mortem Communications. His reading (You can open this one for free, if you dare....): The Night Before Game Day
With apologies to Clement Clarke Moore 'Twas the night before Game Day, when all through the house
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
When out on the roof there arose such a clatter,
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
With a haggard editor, fresh from an all-nighter,
"Now Tim! Now Amber!
As dry leaves that before the wind elemental fly,
And then, craning my ear to the roof perpendicular
He was dressed all in fake fur, for they are not overfond
His eyes--how they twinkled! His dimples, how merry!
His character, a multi-class ninja, pirate, half-dinosaur elf,
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his editing work,
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
"Happy Game Day to all, and to all a good game night!"
