− | Each secret gives a combination of magical abilities, which come in the form of [[interaction token]]s. These abilities may vary widely in type and power level, but will always include the ability to raise corpses and [[intelligent undead]]. Depending on their [[sphere]]s (which stem from the spheres of the original [[deity]] that granted those secrets) secrets may also grant the ability to summon [[nightmare]]s, [[bogeymen]], and also the ability to "ghoulify" a living creature (in effect, giving it a [[syndrome]] that turns it into a [[thrall]], much like [[evil]] clouds). In addition, the intelligent undead will also be granted powers of their own, which may range from raising blisters to rotting nerves, to even being able to raise the dead themselves | + | Each secret gives a combination of magical abilities, which come in the form of [[interaction token]]s.

A single necromancer can learn multiple "strains" of necromancy by reading different sources. Ambitious necromancers tend to create more towers of the same strain via proxy, so you might find your world populated by a single strain. Usually, it's easier when you know which tower houses what kind of undead, or when you go after the source slabs via legends mode. Recovery is also easier when you have a sneaky [[squad]] of artifact raiders in fort mode. | A single necromancer can learn multiple "strains" of necromancy by reading different sources.
