FFIX Vivi — if he had necromancy instead of elemental magic Sevorn can feel things dying. When decay creeps into the village from the forest, it rots crops, twists beasts, and makes the faithful whisper—especially about him, the strange boy who stumbles into their quiet village when the trouble begins. Sevorn’s only gift is the ability to sense the rot… and drain life. Now the village fears him as much as the forest. He can’t raise the dead.He can’t command armies.He barely understands what he’s becoming. But if decay is spreading…someone has to face it. What to Expect - Weak to Strong- Skill driven progression- True necromancy comes later—dark skills start now- Updates MWF
