Judge Of The Dead
A dog headed warrior strikes down a wizard and as his blade connects with their soft flesh his wounds seem to magically close, a tabaxi wielding dual blades infuses his blades with necrotic magic and strikes down his opponent with rapid speed tearing apart their soul leaving them an empty husk of their former selves, a gnome cuts his hand open and casts a spell on his ally bolstering their defence while weakening himself.
Creating a judge of the dead
The judges of the dead can be very useful no matter where they sit in combat, whether it’s in the frontlines sapping the lifeforce from their enemies to bolster their own defence, tearing their enemies apart with weapons infused with necrotic magic in a flurry of strikes, or in the backline blasting targets with necrotic magic and using their own health to buff their allies, they all have their own uses, but every Judge of the dead all have the same philosophie, they all search out and judge those who deserve to be sent to the underworld, for lord osiris to judge further
