The Dem Bones
The Bound¸ gifted as they are with a second chance at life¸ do not die easily. A Sin-Eater's attendant geist can hold the most dreadful injuries at bay¸ and can even manipulate the laws of death so that another dies in the Sin-Eater's place. But what happens when that blessing isn't what the mortal side wants? What happens to poor Regan Anderson¸ driven mad by her bond to a geist so strange and alien to human thought that it's barely a shade at all? Too many "deaths¸" and the mortal mind starts to lose control¸ its humanity shrinking day by day and leaving the geist in control of the body. In the case of Regan's geist¸ that means a creature utterly foreign to human morality or even self-preservation now has ready access to the physical world¸ and the means to indulge its whims.
