Creatures of FASA

FASA 365 Day 174, The Mournful Dead.
NOT a zombie, by the strictest definition.
Yet, it is still technically an undead creature, it is self aware.
It knows it has been cursed by whatever transgressions it is guilty of during its life. It knows that the level of its grotesqueness it bares, is in direct correlation to those transgressions.
Its motivations are not to eat the living but to help or be of use to anyone that it can. To do good deeds. In the hopes that it will earn a more pleasant after life.
Most are killed immediately when they approach, and subsequently go straight to hell.
The lucky ones, are able to communicate well enough that their intentions are not carnivorous.
Now, here’s the tricky part. IF they have earned enough pity, and performed enough selfless acts. They can choose to go to whatever “angelic”, afterlife they believe in.
OR, they can have their former earthly form back… as a ghost. A friendly ghost…
BUT if they were to fall back to their old nasty ways, Its off to hell.
Artists Note: Now there’s an NPC for ya.
