Description: [edit] [history]

Necromancers are murderous, repulsive, utterly ungodly creatures. And then there's Jerry.

Jerry is a novice necromancer who treats his undead warmly, seeks to befriend people instead of harvest their bodies, and doesn't mind cracking a skull or two when needed.

He genuinely is a good guy—too bad nobody believes him.

And just when Jerry's finally found a place to settle down, a few hillbilly soldiers, an arrogant village wizard, and an earth-blessed bandit make it their purpose in life to get on his nerves. Left without recourse... he fights.

Jerry strives to become stronger while maintaining his kindness, only to realize that, maybe, gentle hearts lead to the greatest necromancers. This is the story of a delightful man in a harsh world—full of warmth, action, and wise-cracking bone puns.

Chapters are usually 2-3k words, and updates are 3/week: Mon, Wed, Fri.
