The necromancer has the following wizard spells prepared: • Cantrips (at will): chill touch, light, mage hand, prestidigitation • 1st level (4 slots): disguise self, false life, mage armor, magic missile • 2nd level (3 slots): misty step, ray of enfeeblement, suggestion • 3rd level (3 slots): animate dead, counterspell, fear • 4th level (3 slots): blight, greater invisibility • 5th level (1 slots): dominate person

Glide

When falling at least 10 feet, the necromancer can spend a reaction to fly up to their speed in one direction as they descend. They land in an unoccupied space at the end of their movement, and take no falling damage. They cannot glide while carrying heavy objects, heavy weapons, or shields (though they can drop any held items as part of their reaction).

Talons

The necromancer has advantage on Strength (Athletics) checks made to climb any surface their talons could reasonably grip.

Convincing

The necromancer has advantage on all Charisma checks used to convince someone of their knowledge of subject matter pertaining to the Arcana skill.
