Necromancy is the magic of life and death: draining life, raising the dead as servants, cursing, and restoring life with spells like Revivify.
26 necromancy spells in the SRD, 2 of them cantrips; 4 need concentration and 1 can be cast as a ritual. In the 2014 rules, a School of Necromancy wizard copies these into a spellbook for half the usual time and gold.
