Entry metadata
At his Awakening, Tyron — son of celebrated monster-hunters — touches the stone and receives the empire's most forbidden class: necromancer. One decision later he's an outlaw apprenticed to his own ambition, raising skeletons in the dark between hunts.
Progression: necromancy built bone by bone — minions, marrow magic, and a very illegal skill tree.
Reader fit: you want the outlawed-class fantasy played seriously, with costs.
Texture: dark, driven, gothic around the edges.
