Otherwordly Patron - The Revenant Soul

Otherwordly Patron:

The Revenant Soulhe souls of the dead, eternally damned to
wander the afterlife in despair, are an
endless reminder of mortality's cruelty.
Some souls carry a will unshackled by

Tdeath, and so they linger in the mortal
realm. These souls seek a living host,
whether willing or on the verge of death,
to possess and use to fulfill their unfinished goals in life.
The soul of an army veteran would seek to reunite with their
lost family. A wizard's soul would exact revenge on a school
that backstabbed him. The goals of this soul mingle with the
mortal host, and both become a force of will and vengeance.
A bond of life and death, two souls in one body, now walking
and fighting together as a Revenant.
