Great build, I've played through it to about level 34 now and really enjoyed it. two items I picked up in the course of my play through that really helped in certain situations and fit the aesthetic perfectly were the ancient helm of the unburned from labyrinthian and the helm of Yngol. each adds a nice chunk of defence when smithed and a great boost to fire or frost resist respectively. Great for dragons, dragon priests or powerful mage battles.

During my play through based on this build, I was inspired to create a new mod (a library in Windhelm). Thank you for this and all the builds you have shared.

Good point regarding Hjalmarch; the Clever Man does really lend himself to an out-of-the-way home base. I think I went with Hjerim primarily because none of my other characters had really lived there before.
Glad you're enjoying it! I'd never done necromancy before, either, despite having played the game pretty much since release. I just couldn't get into the RP of a dark, brooding necromancer. It took a link to Nordic myth for me to really explore the fun of those spells!
