    #LegalizeAwoo

    A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
    An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
    A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
    A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"


    "It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch."
    "We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"

    OOC: Eh, I'm downloading it. It's one of those free to play, open world, sandbox, 'hope of the future' MMOs. I got into it because the combat looks interesting and the magic as well. Also, they let you mix races together.

    OOC: It doesn't use classes; there are no werewolves, but they do have some interesting unique races; and necromancy is possible, but you have work with attributes, skills, and maybe find a necromantic guild to get a title like 'Necromancer'. Just look it up.

    OOC: I do not really know; I read 'commune with the dead' in one of the magic explanations (Which was very short in the combat section, I believe.). One of the reasons I'm downloading the game is to research it's magic, necromancy, elements, and the like. I would be very happy if necromancy worked the way you hope, but I doubt it.

But, you live for change, you make change, you live with change. What you need to do is go out there and get this over with. Like ripping off a band aid.

    OOC: I was talking MMO. But yeah... necromancy is really underrepresented. Mainly because it doesn't pander well to the common media, because common media is Christian and... people raising dead people back to life to be meat slaves doesn't really correlate well with Christian beliefs.
