-Rare.
-Most people can learn basic healing spells, but to be truly proficient in the skill one must be born with a healer's talent.

Medium (Talent)

-Though a talent, this can only be received through special circumstances.

Necromancer (Talent/Skill)

-Quite rare.
-Necromancy is frowned upon in society, because of the way it abuses the bodies of the dead.
-It’s not nice. It has some ritual cannibalism thrown into the equation and involves getting up close and personal with innards and body parts.
-It does not involved talking to ghosts.
-It basically consists of searching the bodies for their memories from when they were alive. This, of course, including their deepest secret and knowledge of any type. This is done through aforementioned corpse mutilating.
-Though performing necromancy on just skeletal remains is theoretically possible, you’d have to be a very good necromancer and extremely experienced in your field. The less of the corpse is left, the harder it gets to work with them.
