'''Revenant''' is my preferred handle, but, out of necessity, I frequently mutate into a variant of the name. Thankfully, I was able to grab the name on this wiki.
 
I enjoy an eclectic mixture of complexity and simplicity in many things. {{User:Revenant/Sig}}
<hr/>
At some point I threw my use page open for community editing. Of course, the template I made to advertise this, [[{{NAMESPACE}}:{{BASEPAGENAME}}/EditMe]], has so far been much more popular for editing. Go figure. <s>Nonetheless, feel free to ''<strike>vandalise</strike>'' improve this page (or that one!) to your heart's content.</s>
 
==Handle==
What exactly is a '''revenant''', you may ask?
 
<blockquote class="templatequote">
[[wikipedia:French language|French]], from the present participle ''revenir'' 'to return', from Old French, see [[wiktionary:revenue|revenue]].<br><br>
 
'''[[wiktionary:revenant|revenant]]''' (''plural'' revenants)
 
#someone who [[wiktionary:returns|returns]] from a long [[wiktionary:absence|absence]].
#a supernatural being that returns from the dead; a [[wiktionary:zombie|zombie]] or [[wiktionary:ghost|ghost]].
 
<div>—<cite><small>[[wiktionary:Wiktionary|Wiktionary]]</small></cite></div>

In a zombie game, being a revenant is extraordinarily appropriate. <tt>:)</tt>

{{rquote|left| The Blob hereby grants his holy assent to Revenant to govern Malton in his holy name, to use any likeness and image of the gelatinous master in efforts to enslave help the citizens of Malton. The Blob hereby commissions the Malton Mint to put the image of the Blob and his Mayor, the honorable Revenant on all currency. The Blob decrees all traces of Undead puppetry be stricken from the voting record so that only Misanthropy and Revenants honest and true campaign may be seen. While the sinister Kyle Style and Evil Jorm waged a campaign of mistrust, mud slinging and other sick games only filthy and unclean zeds could enjoy, Misanthropy and Revenant were kissing babies and making promises of tax cuts which we can all believe in. Revenant is uncorruptable and the Blob is pleased to see such a noble and upstanding citizen take office.

{{rquote|left|Rev's arguing strength is derived from his skill in delivering non sequiturs that don't appear to be non sequiturs at first blush. It's hard to argue with someone who is constantly shifting the topic to something he can better defend without it always being obvious that he has done so. It doesn't help that he'll sometimes argue self-contradictory statements simultaneously if they can be used to counter you, all on the assumption that you won't catch the contradiction (I love doing this to friends in real life, honestly).|—[[User:Aichon|Aichon]]}}

===The History of The Revenant===
 
In early 2007, while the wind howled sweet nothings in my ear and the caltrops prickled easily underfoot, I had my first meeting with the Revenant. He was leaning against a wall in a side alley just off Larger Josset Street in East London, his trousers open and a half-penny trollop half-heartedly licking what she found there.<br>
After chasing the bedeviled she-creature off with a stick, I invited the Revenant to have a drink with me at a pub down the street, the Hob and Oxen. He took me up on the offer, and we spent the rest of the night uproariously drunk.<br>
<br>
We exchanged letters for a while afterwards, but I did not encounter the Revenant in person until late in 2009, when, during a shopping trip to Fendleham, I tripped over his inert form on my way out of a brothel. I picked him up, and being unable to rouse him in any way, I dragged him to my hotel room. We spent many a pleasant evening in each others company in that shabby place, and I still rock back on my heels to remember it.<br>
It has been three years since that fateful meeting in Fendleham and we are now happily married with three children and a small white dog.<br>
