Anybody else find the word necromancer incredibly funny and satisfying?
Like, first of all, it sounds like neck romancer, which is a great pun in of itself.
But wait: there's more!
Consider how, if said in certain dialects, the necro part sounds a lil bit like nec' roll, which is patently shorthand for roll for necromancy, and neck roll.
Somewhere out there, somewhen, a very confused DM will look down at a player's game sheet, find that they've scribbled out something and written nec in its place, and confusingly saying something like:
Ok. I'm gonna need you to roll for... nec...???
... only for the player to start rolling their head around their neck :BlobCatGiggle:
Brings a whole new concept to mind when necroing a post :SmugRelievedFace:

Yes: we're aware how dumb this is 🤭 We only got about 3 hours sleep last night, and we're currently living on a mix of ADHD meds, painkillers, a gabapentinoid, sugar, and caffeine 😅
