Halloween is a time for the dead... and for those that love them.
Our long-awaited Mysteries of the Dead Side: Sacred Necromancer rings in this dark holiday. The fruit of our very first Kickstarter campaign, this is the epitome of a devoted necromancer class.
We've also just released our schizophrenic version of the shaitan in Wishbreaker, a Tale of the Shaitan. You can use the creature as a shaitan or as a new genie called a wishbreaker. Either way, it is more than ready to torment PCs.
And one more, our first batch of color prints of Incantations from the Other Side: Spirit Magic and Incantations in Theory and Practice have arrived.

I just checked out your Yamabushi class the other day :O. A dedicated Necromancer class definitely sounds intriguing.
Glad you liked the yamabushi! :)
I love dedicated casters. Just getting a bonus to a given school was never enough for me--you still always fall back to the same handful of spells. I like having to make the best with the spells I've got.
And if enough people want it, we'll keep going with more specialists.

After looking at the Sacred Necromancer, I was wondering about some listed alternatives for the Journeyman of the Vibrant Path; why'd you guys decide to make the undead buffing whispers into undead debuffing whispers instead of just making them buff the living? Seems like it would have been more fitting, along with perhaps taking the inflict spells off the list and adding the cure spells as necromancy (like the Chirugeon gets).
Besides that which kind of made me scratch my head, it seemed like each could definitely be interesting, even if a some are pretty niche (like the Exorcist). Nice work ;o

The journeyman of the vibrant path was intentionally left somewhat open and was included as more of a sub-calling or sidebar to showcase how the journeyman of the pale path could be modified to use positive energy instead of negative.
Using the model we set forth for reversing the journeyman of the pale path's whispers, you could similarly make the focus life buffing rather then undead debuffing. Either or both would be perfectly consistent with the calling.
And because of how the journeyman of the vibrant path was presented, we only modified the existing journeyman of the pale path's whispers and didn't make any new ones. But the one you suggest (swapping the inflicts with cures) would be a perfect whisper.
Hope that helps! :)
