A lich is a [[skeleton]] that has survived for a long while, and has absorbed some of the necromantic energy that initially animated it. In doing so, they gained certain powers, such as the ''withering ball'' as used by [[shinigami]], and the ''frostblast'' of the [[draken]]. By association with these techniques, liches are commonly associated to the cold, and symbols of coldness.
Liches are markedly more intelligent and cunning than regular [[skeleton|skeletons]] or lesser undead creatures. They have a greater tactical sense, will take cover, aim for unarmored body parts, and even retreat when necessary. As such, they tend to be better equipped than skeletons, and serve as the most powerful allies that can serve a [[necromancer]].
All of the same weaknesses that skeletons suffer from also apply to liches, but you must be careful not to underestimate them. They are overall tougher, faster, more capable, and have better tactical senses. Because liches (like other undead) are only interested in ''killing'' the living to create more bodies for necromancers to turn, they cannot pacified or reasoned with.
