Are the restless dead a phenomenon exclusive to the human villages in the Forbidden Lands or does it also affect other kin?
Does it happen in Alderland or Aslene? When did it start?
Very cool idea!That makes sense.
I'm then considering that different kin deal with their deceased in different ways, e.g. dwarfs cremate their dead so their souls can be reforged by Huge, saurians eat the corpses of their own, orcs learned with the dwarfs to cremate their warriors and leaders (but throw dead slaves off cliffs or into rivers)... but humans bury their dead - which would make at least walkers mostly a human problem.
I like this too. So far my players have only ran into human undead and I will probably keep it that way, mostly. It adds to the kin's bad reputation that their dead cause trouble.Very cool idea!That makes sense.
