Verata, Pre-SearingEdit

Verata the Necromancer is a promising necromancer in Ascalon's necromantic order who shows exceptional ability in the field of summoned minions, which might be a reason why many minion related skills are named after him. While Verata is undoubtedly gifted, his lust for power has been known to lead him to commit atrocities against people in his bid for greater 'understanding'. The necromantic order is most eager to keep any such indiscretions quiet, and as such, exact details would be hard to obtain unless one were to have necromantic inclinations.

Verata (the left image) is also the first Profession Trainer for necromancers before the Searing.

TriviaEdit

• Clatto verata nicto is the incantation used by Ash Williams to save the world in Army of Darkness. Unfortunately, he was supposed to say, Klaatu barada nikto, the line from the 1951 film, The Day the Earth Stood Still.
