Black Reaper planned

From the original game

“Some necromancers fall so deeply into their black magic that they are transformed into their own creation. A Black Reaper is a foul abomination, half man, half wraith. Black reapers become ethereal and can move through walls and obstacles, at the price of physical strength, and lose most of the magical powers they knew in their human life.”

Skill caps

A cap is the highest level this class can train a skill to. The table lists the skills it caps lower; every other skill it can learn can reach level 10. It can't learn 9 skills at all: Cure Wounds, Toughness, Protection from White, Protection from Red, Protection from Green, Protection from Blue, Protection from Yellow, Revitalize, Cure Poison. These caps are in the game data; the class itself opens later.
