Description: Juana is a young but powerful necromancer. She has allowed this power to go to her head and often asserts dominance over others as a result. In part, this is because she believes the tale that one of her distant ancestors was a queen. However, she lacks any documentation or family heirlooms to back up such a claim.
Having more or less completed her apprenticeship, Juana set off to make a name for herself, leaving the ancient woods of her birth. She scavenged battlefields and built an army of skeletons to do her bidding.
She set to work building her own kingdom, moving into an abandoned castle and renaming it Castle Underwood. She then started to press the local villages into her domain; small, independent settlements not affiliated with larger kingdoms, which she squeezes food and money from. However, she is very inexperienced and lacks the skills to improve the land beyond driving away monsters and bandits with her undead army.
Juana is a caster, preferring to hide behind her minions while she launches ranged spells. Her skills primarily revolve around necromancy and basic attack spells such as lighting. She is also able to place certain types of wards. In a pinch, she can summon a wall of bones to shield her from attacks. She also uses items with preset spells to aid her in fields she hasn't studied, such as her petrification ring.
The star of my Plight of the Necromancer. Juana is a character I was coming up with for a while. I've more or less mapped out her first story already. I do plan on using her again, despite her blunder, but I haven't gotten around to writing it yet.
