Place a grim mark upon your victim so you may sense him better, aiding in his demise. Use of several Necromancy skills will cause the mark to darken further. As the mark darkens, so will your abilities to sense things about your victim increase. Should you seek the means to torture him, the mark will make it ever so painful. It will also cause your victim a longer time to recover his balance while on a crucifix and more apt to fall to the worst of a contagion plague.

By preparing your body for lichdom, the next time you die, your body will rise again as a lich.* As a lich, you will find your strength and intelligence increased at night but, to a lesser extent, decreased during the day. You will also have mild regenerative powers at night. Your touch will freeze others, and you can breathe contagion at half the power cost of casting it. Also, as long as a lich is in the same room as a cloud of contagion, the cloud cannot be blown away. Warriors who become a lich are often referred to as "Death Marshals".

Necromancers who have gained knowledge of Lichdom are known as archliches. An archlich is immune to the detriments of daylight,
maintaining full benefit in the light as well as the dark, and gains the additional skill of the Cold Aura, which will cause enemies around the lich to suffer the cold of the grave, which is similar to the touch of the lich. Maintaining the cold aura costs a significant mana drain. They can also give the lich seed to others for five power from the Megalith from both parties.

Liches have what is known as an excorant gland, which absorbs excorable damage. Liches will absorb 10% of excorable energy and archliches will absorb 20%. When the excorant gland is full (which you can see on <tt>DEF</tt>), the lich can perform an eyeblast attack, emptying the excorant gland and releasing the energies in a powerful attack.
