Revenant

Civilization and Culture

Beauty Ideals

The wise Revenant can maintain a disguise to look like a malnourished member of its former race. Revenant who do not go through great lengths to maintain their appearance and hygiene will likely end up being ostracized by whatever community they are trying to blend into.

Relationship Ideals

Unfortunately for the Revenant, maintaining a future or current relationship is incredibly difficult. Most Revenant will be happy to attain companions for whatever short periods they can muster.

Common Dress Code

Most Revenant err on the side of too much covering, as to hide any parts of their bodies that are decayed or misshapen.

Roleplay Features:

Revenant must keep the fact that they are undead a secret, or they may be removed from their community.   A Revenant comes back from the dead when they have a mission they must accomplish and more often than not will pass on willingly after they accomplish their goal. This generally happens shortly after they finish their task and can be anything from the soul leaving the body, the body crumbling to dust, or spontaneous combustion.

Favored Class Bonuses

Favored Class Bonuses are based on the racial favored class bonus of your Past Life feature.
