In the Necrolibriatas osteomancy is briefly mentioned. Now what exactly is osteomancy? In the Necrolibriatas entry that it is mentioned, it can be interpreted that the osteomancer is the one who raises your character from beyond to exact revenge for means yet to be mentioned. From what I perceive, this is more of necromancy than anything, however osteomancy as far as I can tell is a form of divination to possibly to tell the future by reading the formation of bones either from where they lay or to cast a collection of said bones then read the form on which they land to gain insight into future events. Has this concept of osteomancy been expanded upon to include necromancy, and what could it mean for possible magics within deadhaus? Could it retain a branch within necromancy to revive the one who's bones had belonged to, or is it reserved to more ritualistic means to awaken the energy that lays within the bones themselves? Now to expand upon the magical control of bones themselves, could a lich that specializes in osteomancy take it a step further and actually influence the bones on a more physical level than spiritual? Maybe perhaps growing their own or a allies skeletal structure into an armor, maybe even drawing bone fragments that may be embedded within the soil surrounding them to create weapons to cast upon enemies or even protect the said lich? I would love to see your opinions on this and any kind of insight or expansion!
