	Necromancy is usually a poor choice for [[arcane]] spellcasters. Those who really want to master the deathless arts almost always pursue [[divine]] means. However, an alternative exists for those who desire power over undead, without losing too much of their [[arcane]] power. Enter the pale master, who draws on a font of special lore that provides a macabre power all its own.		Necromancy is usually a poor choice for [[arcane]] spellcasters.

			*Previously, before 5/31/2023, Pale Masters were considered an Advanced Magic Specialization, and thus ineligible for another. As of that date this is no longer the case. Pale Masters remain a Prestige Class (PrC) and thus require Team pre-approval to also pursue an AMS. As with any other character with a PRC, if you're interested in applying for an AMS, please PM the Event DM team with the particular details of your character and your plans on how to roleplay the combination. Requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
