I've got all of the core 4e books and none of the Essentials stuff besides Heroes of the Shadowfell & Feywild, and the Neverwinter Campaign Setting.http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75882/28844129/Full-fledged_Shadow_Controller:_Necromancer_(homebrew_in_progress)?post_id=515340371#515340371That sounds alright with me, but... what's the Protector?
