Argul, a mortal turned deity when the secrets of death were uncovered by him. Ever since he had turned an entire planet into his celestial god-palace, by making every creature there undead and under his control; permanently. Argul had become a deity of worship for many necromancers wish to obtain even a fragment of his power. Luckily, many scrolls, grimoires, articles, and magic items were left by Argul within the realm of mortals; knowledge of his prior research on the attributes of life and death, and how to manipulate them at a scale tenfold. He learned that to truly become a dealer of the dead, you must abandon any and every other school of magic besides necromancy. Necromancy must become your sole purpose and way of survival. Only then, may you unlock the secrets of the power of life. Hence, founded the Cult of Argul, where wizards abandoned their studies in the School of Necromancy, and instead started becoming Scholars of Argul; for greater strength than the measly 'School of Necromancy'.
