I've been thinking of how cool it would be to be able to conjure up skeletons or Wither Skeletons out of a pile of bones or something like that. Since there are beacons and brewing and teleporting into different dimensions, why shouldn't there be some minor conjuration in Minecraft? I would hope that if they add this, it would fit well with the overall theme of Minecraft yet not be too similar to other games (i.e: Skyrim, WoW, Champions of Norrath, e.t.c...)
If this were to be added it should be very similar to enchanting, involving books and a certain table or workbench device to summon some special mobs or weapons or materials.
I personnaly think that conjuring mobs and different things would fit into minecraft really well and add some diverse elements and goals for the Minecraft survivalist or Wizards such as myself.
There is but I think that the mod is a bit different. In the Necromancy Mod bodyparts are required to sew the minions together and summon them. I think Pyro is explaining that you would actually summon minions out of thin air, with an specific book or device. So, the mod and idea are very similar, but the steps to do it are different.
I don't think this would fit into Minecraft. Mobs are supposed to be either your enemies or a natural resource (except for wolves), and I don't want them to become "minions".

Last time I checked, Iron and Snow golems counted as minions.
OT:No support, minecraft shouldn't be an RPG.

True, but I think of them more as a utility-only mob. Skeletons, for example, are supposed to be hostile, not friendly or tamable.
