{{quote|You seek power? I will give you power beyond measure. The power of life renewed|[[Xol, Will of the Thousands|Xol]] to [[Nokris, Supplicant to Savathûn|Nokris]]}}
The origins of Necromancy are not known, however it is known to involve the use of [[Paracausality|paracausal]] abilities. When [[Nokris, Supplicant to Savathûn|Nokris]] sought to impress his father [[Oryx, the Taken King]] he would commune with the [[Worm|Worm Gods]]. All of them would reject the disfavoured son, except [[Xol, Will of the Thousands]] the weakest of his kind who would offer Nokris a bargain.  Nokris would trade Xol his heart, in exchange for learning the power of Necromancy. Nokris would accept pledging his alligence to the Worm God, becoming his High Priest. However Oryx found out and was enraged, as he considered Necromancy a violation of the [[Sword Logic]]. Nokris and his [[Grasp of Nokris|brood]] were exiled and would depart alongside Xol.

The former high priest of Xol, Nokris had survived his encounter with the [[The Guardian|Guardian]]. He had now been abandoned by his God and would enter the [[Ascendant Realm|Ascendant Plane]]. This would catch the attention of [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]] who would offer him a bargain. The Witch Queen would grant him a spot on her court and teach him how to [[Taken|Take]] using [[Quria, Blade Transform]] and in exchange he would teach her Necromancy. He would accept now pledging his loyalty to his aunt, becoming her supplicant. Nokris would intervene with the [[The Witness|Witness's]] messages to the Guardian by order of Savathûn. Despite the [[Hive]] Heretics best efforts he was killed.

===Return of Titan===


With the return of [[Titan (moon)|Titan]], forces of the [[Lucent Brood]] would arrive on the moon led by [[Šimmumah ur-Nokru|Šimmumah ur-Nokru, Lucent Necromancer]], previously a member of the [[Grasp of Nokris]] now resurrected as a [[Lightbearer Wizard]]. They would arrive in the depths of [[Titan (moon)|Titan]] where the remains of [[Oryx, the Taken King]] lie, and would begin a ritual using Light and Necromancy in an attempt to resurrect the God King of the Hive. Deputy Commander [[Sloane]] would send the Guardian to discover their plan. The Guardian would kill the recently resurrected [[Ecthar, Sword of Oryx|Ecthar, Shield of Savathûn]] a previous member of Oryx's court resurrected as a [[Lightbearer Knight]], and discover the ritual site. [[Šimmumah ur-Nokru|Šimmumah ur-Nokru, Lucent Necromancer]] would summon reinforcements and resurrect [[Vorlog|Vorlog, Risen in Hersey]] previously a champion of Oryx, to defeat the Guardian. However the Guardian would prevail, killing the Lucent Necromancer and stopping the ritual. [[The Hidden]] would secure Oryx's remains for study.
