Summary0011259: Necromancers being integrated into mortal civilizations and forgetting what they are.
DescriptionIt seems that there is a problem with necromancers. If a necromancer moves into a conquered hamlet and that hamlet is then reconquered by the living, the necromancer can be assimilated into the living civilization as a normal citizen and even get married/have children with members of their original living race in spite of being dead.

It seems that Toady One forgot to add a kill/expel/go-undercover function for necromancers that end up being placed forcibly under the rule of a living civilization. Or it isn't working properly.

This looks like it could be a root cause of 0009928. Do you have a save/seed where this can be clearly demonstrated?

Here is the save file, sorry about the delay, I had to struggle with bad internet.

The necromancer is called Taba Gearedanguish, he becomes a poet after the village he moves to after being conquered by his necromancer faction gets reconquered by the humans in the counter-attack. He then goes on to get married to and produce some children by a mortal human woman, (he is listed as both spouse and deceased spouse, both logical and amusing).

I am sorry but I seem to have accidentally destroyed the save file and reverted back to an old version, an an old save file.

Your seed info ought to be available in gamelog.txt, if you haven't reverted it.

I had not destroyed the file, merely moved the file somewhere else. Here is the file.
