Handle

What exactly is a revenant, you may ask?

French, from the present participle revenir 'to return', from Old French, see revenue.

revenant (plural revenants)

  1. someone who returns from a long absence.
  2. a supernatural being that returns from the dead; a zombie or ghost.

In a zombie game, being a revenant is extraordinarily appropriate. :)

Rev's the worst. If he's here, he's drunk. If he's not drunk, he's asleep. If he's not asleep, then maybe he'll be here, although late.

I am a voting for Mis cuz he's a cool guy and for Rev for being the ONLY candidate to try to be an actual politician. You know, actually campaigning, contacting voters, employing dirty tactics.

No rumor could have exceeded the reality; the study was filled with cronies, the air heavy with tobacco smoke, trays with bottles containing every imaginable brand of whiskey stood about, cards and poker chips ready at hand--a general atmosphere of waist-coat unbuttoned, feet on the desk, and the spittoon alongside.

Zombie-Cat

Here kitty kitty kitty...

You are lying outside the Usher Building, a large magenta-stone building with a perfectly functional roof. You recognise it as not being owned by NecroTech. The building has been extremely heavily barricaded with a piece of paper. Somebody has spraypainted Cataracts onto a wall.

Since your last turn:
  • Zombie-Cat claws you in the face for 75 damage. (12 hours and 35 minutes ago) ...and again. (12 hours and 35 minutes ago) ...and again. (12 hours and 35 minutes ago) ...and again. (12 hours and 35 minutes ago)
  • You were killed by Zombie-Cat (12 hours and 34 minutes ago)
  • SilverMemory pets Zombie-Cat. (12 hours and 32 seconds ago)
  • Prima Giedi said "D'awwwww, can we keep it? Might need to clip its claws, though." (6 hours and 52 minutes ago)
