I might be mistaken so apologies and please correct me if I'm posting this in the wrong place.

I had an idea for a fairy piece I think could be of some pertinence to 4pc variation games...

The Necromancer

Moves like a King. Any "dead" piece the Necromancer touches becomes part of that players army. By touches I mean if the dead piece is on any of the 8 squares immediately adjacent to the Necromancer.

The Hell-raiser

Like the Necromancer except when a dead piece is "reanimated" any dead pieces touching those dead pieces also become reanimated (and so on in a chain reaction).

it sounds cool but will probably be ignored. I can't name a single time a piece was suggested and it was actually made.

Avatar of HighEldar

Nope, came up with it myself @seanziminggao

You're probably right Angelo, but I like the thought experiment all the same

there should also be a grasshopper rider.

There aren’t enough Promo options for that, I believe.

And also in Labyrinth games and things like that, the Grasshopper rider would be too OP and they wouldn’t)t allow that.

Oh.

Necromancers are like the evil officers in Songs of War who release zombies to attack the 'Songs'. Prime songs are the most powerful.

If you want to see the movie (P.S. ITS SO GOOD), go onto youtube and search : Songs of War, Minecraft animation

you know what, I've clocked that, I'm not gonna watch it now but that looks good lol

No, I didn't get it from there - Necromancer is a common term that basically means someone who practises Necromancy or "Dead - Magic". You find it in all kinds of fantasy genres

Ohhhh. I thought it was a name and not a general definition. 

In that case, nice name!
