Necromancy is a subclass of magic which is aimed at casting spells on the dead, whether to reanimate a corpse temporarily for information or to re-live a dead man's last moments, and so forth.
Due to its invasive nature on the dead, as well as potential side effects, the practice is banned by the Brotherhood of Sorcerers.[1]
History
In 1271, Hanmarvyn's Blue Dream, a powerful necromantic ritual, was used on Auckes' corpse by the mage Dethmold and by Geralt to see his last moments of his life.[2]
In 1272, necromancy was used in Freya's Garden by Yennefer on the corpse of Skjall to talk and ask him about Ciri.[3]
