Throughout the stories of Europe are tales of the dead returning to wretched life to haunt the living. Some wish to drink our blood, others to torment us for perceived wrongs. Others return with strange purpose and stranger abilities. These revenants can curse the living, spread disease, and some can even shape-shift.
These creatures cannot be destroyed by blade or bow. Revenants demand specific rites and rituals which can prevent them from rising again, and only then can their curses be broken.
