14. Necromancy (Bonus Chapter)

Knowing Stone: By cutting himself and painting the name on a stone with his blood, the Necromancer can see where the soul of a person currently resides after petitioning the loas by dancing around the stone in trance.

 Two Centimes: By ceremonially "killing" a person, laying them out on a pallet, and closing their eyes with two coins, the Necromancer can send the soul of a person into the Underworld as an intangible phantom. The person can still communicate with the Necromancer until the ritual ends.

Part the Veil: The Necromancer chants over an object representing the target and a fresh human eye. If successful, the target gains the ability to see past the Shroud for several nights.

Blood Dance: In a ceremony where the Necromancer dances and chants to attract the right spirit, while scattering colored sands and ocean salt on the ground in a complex sigil, the Necromancer can summon the wraith of a relative of a present living person.

Nightmare Drums: The Necromancer coats the personal object of a person in his own blood, then burns it while pounding on drums made of human skin. While the drums make no sound in the living world, they attract wraiths, along with the sacrificed object. In exchange for a small favor, the wraith will then haunt the dreams of the person whose possession was burned.

Eyes of the Dead: The Necromancer chants while spilling his own vitae over an object or piece of anatomy associated with a deceased person with an intact head. If the Necromancer was able to see the corpse during the process, he can then use the corpse's sensory organs to spy on its surroundings.

Baleful Doll: The Necromancer constructs a doll while ritually chanting, painting it with his own vitae and clothing it in an article of the victim's clothing. If the doll resembles the target enough, any damage the doll suffers is sympathetically transmitted to it.

Point of the Needle: Immersing a needle that has been used for tormenting a Baleful Doll in blood under the moon, the Necromancer can shrivel a target's limb by stabbing it with the needle.

Dead Man's Hand: The Necromancer takes a freshly severed hand, wrapping it in a piece of cloth stained with bodily fluids from the target. As the hand decomposes, so does the victim.
