Deadman Origins
The Great Necromancer gained an army of the living dead when he revived the poor souls slain by King Soo. In order to ensure they followed his will, the necromancer revived them with his will imprinted upon their hearts, and should they refuse to obey, their hearts would explode. And with his new army of dead men walking, he set out to conquer lands far and wide, ravaging anything and anyone in sight. These resurrected individualsโthe very first deadmenโclaimed the souls of many and feasted upon their victimsโ bodies to gain more power. There is a myth that said this very feasting produced an immensely powerful being: the God of Death.
This myth goes on to talk about how a spiritually strong human was born into poverty, and they spent all their life struggling to cope with the death of their loved ones at the hands of the Necromancerโs army. Because of this, the gods took pity on them and gave them power over the underworld and spirits, telling his God of Death that theyโd help souls find their final peace and build an army of their own to stop the Great Necromancer. With their newfound power and knowledge, the God of Death set out first thing to gather strength in power and numbers so they can finally put the Great Necromancer and his army to rest.

About Deadmen
Deadmen are spirits of the deceased that were revived in order to complete their last dying wish. A spirit becomes a deadman when they die with a deep and burdensome regret so heavy that it follows them into the afterlife. They are specifically revived by essences who are most appropriate to help them with achieving their goal. When a deadman is brought back, they are brought back with a heart that is essentially a time bomb, their timers being located on their left inner wrist. Timers are written out vertically from days to seconds (day : hour : minute : second) and only essences, other deadmen, and reapers are able to see their timers. Of all the revived spirits, deadmen are the most like regular humans.
If youโre interested in portraying a deadman, your muse must not have a dying wish that involves causing another person or people harm. Please also keep in mind that your muse will have an IC time limit on their life as a deadman.

Other things to know about them
Below are some additional facts about deadmen and how they'll work in the RP.
- They cannot exist without an essence as essences are the ones that revive deadmen.
- Deadmen are trapped in Sacheon. After 5 minutes away from its borders, their eyes, nose, and lips will leak black liquid, they will feel weak, and their hearts will explode. If hearts short circuit, they can get jump started by the deadmanโs essence within the next 5 minutes to save them. After that time period, the deadman and essence will perish.
- Crimes can either deal damage (shock a deadman until their heart stops, stop their breathing for a few minutes, etc before stopping or before they need to be revived) or, if severe, will cause a deadmanโs heart to explode.
- Once a deadmanโs timer reaches 00:00:00:00 and they havenโt been able to achieve their last dying wish, their essence will be put to rest and they will be reassigned with one more chance before they are also put to rest without a chance to pass on to the happy afterlife. If their timer runs out, and they have completed their dying wish, they will simply pass on to the afterlife.
- Deadmen are more resilient against pain than the average human because they are beings that carry a heavy burden: their unfulfilled dying wish. They are still able to get hurt and will still feel pain, but the sensation is dampened, so in cases like when they get stabbed or break a limb, itโll still hurt, but theyโll be able to tolerate it a lot easier because the feeling goes away quicker.
