Reviled by most elves for being slightly too obsessed with animating corpses Namtari serves a crucial state endorsed role in Nagarea's society. It is generally considered an act of desecration to animate corpses and thus only those bodies of criminals, prisoners, rebels and slain enemies are used. The prospect of your corpse being used in an undead army once you have been executed is a surprisingly effective extra deterrent. Parents will often tell unruly or impious children that should they misbehave that they will be taken away and turned into zombies, as well as being good for scaring children this practice is routinely employed against enemies of the state. Namtari is the head of the Licensed Necromancers of Nagarea - a feared and despised organisation.
