'''Necromancy''' is a practice involving the use of [[paracausality|paracausal]] abilities to resurrect the dead. It is considered by [[Oryx]]'s Hive to be a violation of [[The Sword Logic]], and therefore forbidden; however, it has been employed by the heretical Hive Prince [[Nokris]], who was taught the secrets of necromancy by the Worm God [[Xol]]. Xol himself used necromancy to resurrect several individuals of various races who had been slain by the [[Guardians]], including [[Valus Ta'aurc]], [[Drevis, Wolf Baroness]], and [[Urzok, the Hated]], before [[Taken|Taking]] them and converting them into [[Ta'aurc, Aspect of War]], [[Drevis, Aspect of Darkness]], and [[Urzok, Aspect of Hate]] respectively. Many of [[Savathûn's Hive]] have the title "Revenant" attached to their names, suggesting that [[Savathûn]] and her subordinates also employ necromancy.

The [[Scorn]] are a faction of undead [[Fallen]] reanimated by [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]] using [[Dark Ether]]. This method differs from Nokris' necromancy, as the revived Fallen are infused with Dark Ether and undergo drastic physical changes coupled with mental degradation. In contrast, the Hive resurrected by Nokris seem to be fully reconstituted and identical to their former selves.
The [[resurrection]] of [[Guardians]] by their [[Ghosts]], although typically not referred to as such, may technically also be considered a form of necromancy.
