Default RE: necromancy and the law

Because its an attack on the player that summoned it. And the player can not do anything to stop it. This needs to be responded to by a DM. Even if you are RP your character you are still attacking another character, weither it is a summons, a familiar or the character themselves you are still attacking them in a non-pvp environment. Just think about it a moment, how is the player to react to you attacking their summons? There response would be hostile to your actions thus resulting in pvp. I have had this happen several times and the last time it happend Orth informed the offender that his actions were against the rules. Just as a mage uses a familiar to take the blunt of the attack so do most other people who summon undead, so you kill their undead and now they are left to get back on their own. So essentially you put them at the risk of being killed by a random spawn. If I am wrong in this then lets have one of the GMs correct this.
