Teaching Assistant
An apprentice necromancer keeps a disposable minion close, ready to redirect a killing effect onto them the instant it turns personal.
The teaching assistant is the one who actually runs the dread classroom while the master takes the credit — an apprentice necromancer drilling lessons into reluctant minions and disposable students alike. They have learned the first rule of survival: there is always someone closer to the blade than you.
