📋 About This Mod
The spell reanimate has been added to all Necromancers named Necromancer.
This mod adds the Reanimate spell to all NPCs named Necromancer in Skyrim, allowing them to raise the dead. It's a simple, targeted tweak for players who want necromancer enemies to use this iconic ability. With 16 endorsements and a 2012 update, it's a niche, old mod.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Makes necromancer enemies actually use necromancy, which is a nice touch.
- Simple and lightweight – no extra scripts or bloat.
- Works with the base game's existing Reanimate spell, so no new assets needed.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects NPCs named exactly 'Necromancer' – other variants like 'Necromancer Adept' won't get the spell.
- Old mod from 2012 – might have compatibility issues with newer Skyrim versions or mods that alter NPCs.
- Limited scope – if you're expecting a full necromancy overhaul, this isn't it.
This is for players who want a bit more challenge and flavor from necromancer enemies, especially those who role-play as anti-necromancer characters. It's also for modders looking for a simple example of how to edit NPC spell lists.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using mods that change necromancer NPCs, load this mod after them to ensure the spell is added.
- Test in a dungeon with necromancers to see the effect – you'll notice them raising corpses mid-battle.
- Combine with mods that improve AI or combat to make necromancers more threatening.
