The Afturgangar

The Afturgangar
Awoken from the sleep of ages, afturgangar are undead - similar to the evil draugr, thurs ghuls or gengangere. However, afturgangar are given a nobler purpose - to redeem themselves in the eyes of the Gods and be taken by Valkyries to Valhalla.

Afturgangar are almost always men'u who have been raised by the power of a sacred Valkyrie to be given a second chance to earn their place beside men'u Gods. Though they appear as they were in life, barring the sunken and glowing eyes, many afturgangar shy away from other people. Feeling the sting of rebirth and the unnatural state of their prolonged existence, they find solace from that discomfort in solitude and frequent travels.

Afturgangar almost always reflect the races they originated in. Though the majority of them are men'u, an occasional aelan or tama follower of the men'u faith arise as afturgangar. Afturgangar have deep, sunken eyes that glow in the dark, and pale blue or grey skin that has toughened after death and can withstand enormous damage.

Afturgangar often lumber out of the many nameless tombs that litter Iskandarr, and many tend to stay away from being closely involved with any society, staying on the edges and fringes of civilization.
