The process shouldn't take too long unless we are breaking Alice instead of her letting us convert her.

Alice deserves some time spent with her after the conversion or we may join Gwen and listen the lecture

Raising skeletons and other undead as a Night Troll is icky in the same way as a used popsicle stick golem, or a paper mache roast chicken made out of used candy wrappers and peanut butter is icky. It's taking rubbish and turning them into something that looks like food or people.

Wait why are people against necromancy?  Its just another vector through which we can increase our numbers, seems like a good idea to me.

Because, like I said, it's seen as an affront to almost all religious customs, including those of the Elves' theocratic society.

And, as we are immortal, we cannot learn it anyway. Immortals cannot learn necromancy. Unless I am mistaken.

And because some people care about other things except " How to increase our numbers"

I wouldn't surprised to find that Nocteclaw doesn't support necromancy ( BTW, should ask the mermaid about what kinds of magic Nocleclaw likes and what magic is unacceptable for her... Generally it's a good idea to learn what our goddess like\dislike)

Please keep any references to the final result spoiler-ed or white-texted. I want to be pleasantly surprised when I tally em up, and some people may want to be surprised by the update.

Not just numbers - expendable numbers, at that. Minions that have neither mind nor soul nor importance to the plot are very useful to have around, to be thrown away as needed to protect us and the unexpendable npc's.

It's laughable that Nocteclaw would be against Necromancy, as is the notion that Necromancy is more evil than stealing elves and turning them into night creatures who eat elves and crave the fear of mortals. Is it not more ethical to use undead as canon fodder than living creatures who have minds and souls?

I'm willing to discuss the subject of necromancy if we ever find a way to learn it, otherwise... what's the point?
Personally i'm quite pleased by our current name.

Necromancy just seems to be going over a line, as it was said earlier, people don't like elves, everyone hates necromancy, we don't have to be Night Trolls like our father, we should try to become important, yet frightening members of society.

As for necromancy and other morality stuff

Our character is not evil, it's clearly seen from his relationships with Gwen and Alice. Stop applying the video game logic. We kill to eat and in self-defense.  We rape because we have on other means to reproduce. It's just our way of life. Even from strategy point of view it's better to maintain a nice reputation, we constantly get mortal allies here and there
