Are you mad? In a few hundred years the undead population is going to totally eclipse the alive population. They got to go, build a wall, etc...

@Double Capybara

That sounds unlikely in excess - and if the living conditions are good, and expansion is had, living individuals can continue to outnumber the undead. 'Sides, the undead are normal peeps, so what damage is done if they miraculously outnumber the population? Only a small fraction of individuals actually arise from death.

If your willing to kiss the decaying, breathing body of your mother every night that's on you.

They don't decay, from what I remember.

[LokiLeo789]

@Kangutso
Well. What's the point in calling them 'dead'. If that's the case then it would be harder to gage. If culture dictates that Souls go on to some sort of eternal Vhala, them killing the reanimated would be for a holy cause. If death is something feared in this world, the reanimated would he hailed as heroes or mini demigod. So I will have to keep that in mind as a build upon the Amestrian Culture.

While I'm free, who do you guys thing would win in a straight up fight? Lifsprial or Sin.

I doubt they would be hurling feeling at one another so this is a fight were vices and emotions are manifested into thier physical forms.

Lif has literally multiple relics given by various gods as well as the whole "killing the massive titan thing called Grot and eating its soul" thing

@Double Capybara

Then give them the bare minimum, gimme nothing to work with. Please. A fight on equal playing fields, no divine assistance, just their portfolios and physical capabilities.

They do decay, I'm pretty sure, eventually becoming living skeletons. They also have no physical sensations or feelings once they resurrect. Although this does mean freedom from hunger, thirst, exhaustion and pain, it also strips them of the ability to sleep, dream, or feel physical comfort. This is a guess, but I don't think they'd be able to really enjoy their senses any more. They can probably see and hear fine enough, but to appreciate music on a physical level, or enjoy a meal? Probably not.

Which might not bother some people all that much, honestly. Those who derive most of their life satisfaction out of knowing rather than feeling, and don't mind the idea that they're stuck on Galbar for another slow hundred years or so to watch their children age past them and die, they'll probably adapt to undeath pretty well and make themselves useful.

For those who consider resurrection a curse, if only past the point where they say goodbye to their families, there are Lenslings.

Urtelem relationships between herds, with zombies and Lenslings, and with the stone calendar system are all things I've got scheduled to look at as soon as I teach them a written language. I feel like I've been neglecting their perspective a little. .-.

[Muttonhawk]

The undead can still enjoy sight? Sounds like art galleries are going to be matters of pilgrimage for them when they come about. Or just travelling to the many wondrous sights of Galbar.

Talk about travelling in retirement.

@Rtron

If you could clear up the 'undead decay or not' issue, that would be great, since Vestec is the one who caused it.

And I'm pretty darn sure they don't decay, and the plan was for the God of Death to go and curse them or something that would both make them decay, and turn most into mindless zombies.

EDIT: The the player of said God of Death left.

[Muttonhawk]

I thought they decayed to the point given on their creation sheets.

[Double Capybara]

Ilunabar will really need to sit down and think about her perspective on the undead.

Right now however, I'm more focused on bringing back the whole "Ilunabar is a bit hard to follow, a bit.. uh.. peculiar" that I had in my CS. Trust nobody, not even reality itself.

[Kangutso]

Forget what I said of the undead. Turns out I was going off of crappy memory, and it took me a bit to find the sheet for them.

As for the curse, its literally a "results may vary" thing based on race.

[Cyclone]

Yeah for some reason undead ogres are apparently made of rock.

...a tradition of smashing dead bodies to bits will probably arise as part of ogre culture!

@Muttonhawk

Welcome to Galbar, where the zombies are artists, the artists are mutants, the spirits talk in sick rhymes and cats are slightly more sadistic than usual.

Assuming that there aren't massive purges, suicides, and Godly retribution to ensure such a thing doesn't happen.

I WAS RUNNING OUT OF IDEAS TO MAKE EVERY RACE A UNIQUE UNDEAD.

AND I STILL HAVE MORE RACES TO ADD.

Small post is small. A little something-something before the big dragon post.

DId you do something for them? I never got around to reading the undead fluff.

@LokiLeo789

Lifprasil doesn't have a very good grip on any fighting style, although his form leans more on the corporeal despite appearing human. Buuuut Lif will work on learning to fight when I get back - he's used Niciel's armor, and his codex imbued chaotic Urumi as a sort of crutch until now. He can still hold his own if we're talking about fists though - just because Lif is an older demigod, of whom is the product of two gods.

Trust me, Niciel's armor is strong as heck, it was able to front against Allure's cutting attacks, despite said attacks being able to dice through sheer cliff faces like warm cheese, and protect Lif from Grot (Lif needs to thank Niciel for that later). The Blade of Chaos is also super strong, due to it being infused with a page from the Codex of Creation, which makes divine beings dead. It also has a mind of its own - and a hunger for carnage. I doubt Lif would fight another Demi without these things.

Let's also not forget Oevadia, the jet powered super mount.

Edit: >43 might

Old boy Ull'yang could probably nuke us all right now and we wouldn't be able to stop him.

O-oh no.

[LokiLeo789]

I have to create a Hero Sheet for Son's kids right? They will be hero's in the future.
