Revenants
A creature of pure anger and vengeance. A Revenant becomes so when a living creature is slain with their intense and burning desire for revenge left unfulfilled in life.
A creature of pure anger and vengeance. A Revenant becomes so when a living creature is slain with their intense and burning desire for revenge left unfulfilled in life. The consciousness of the vengeful creature returns to their body, sometimes for many years at a time, but typically only until that desire for revenge is fulfilled. Once their vengeance is satisfied a revenant can finally be at peace. Their body dissipates once the power of rage no longer bonds it together and the consciousness is now free to move on.
