Necromancer and Tamriel

So I'm seeing a lot of speculation about how Necromancers are going to be able to interact with Tamriel, given that they are pretty much universally hated.

Well, we know the Justice System is going to be altered to make it different. Performing necromancy in towns is going to get Guard attention. But I'm also seeing people question how Necromancers will be able to do the Psijic quests, given that in Lore, Psijics have outlawed necromancers.

I think the answer is simple. Necromancers will fit inot lore as much as they can in an MMO. But I think there are going to be inevitable lore breaking things, like Necromancers doing work for the Psijics and the Mages guild.

Not everything can be 100% lore friendly in a game like this, if they were, Necromancers would basically have nothing to do lol. So I think we just need to take it as it comes and just enjoy it for what it is and not how it does or doesn't break Lore.

    Same reason why a Vampire Necromancer in TES V: Skyrim can help Meridia, or being a Necromancer in TES III: Morrowind, for the story you are the hero, thus you get a free pass with major factions/characters because you are there to save the day.

    People generally can't tell you are a necromancer unless you start summoning the dead in front of them. If you do that, there will be penalties. I don't see the problem.
