Revenants are ghosts that have been infused with strange alien energies and brought partially back into the mortal plane. They are invisible to the naked eye but can still be influenced by magical or holy means. In addition, machinery may recognize a revenant's presence. Revenants are typically immortal while invisible, but most of their spooky abilities will reveal them to the crew for brief amounts of time. | Revenants are ghosts that have been infused with strange alien energies and brought partially back into the mortal plane in areas filled with death.

Becoming a Revenant[править | править код]
There are two ways to become a revenant. The first is for an admin to spawn in a revenant and quickly place you into the mob. The second way is for a random event to happen. You must have the Revenant preference toggled on (use the verb for special candidacy in the Preferences tab) and you may be selected. A sound will play to your client in case you were alt-tabbed or something and you will spawn in certain areas that are thick with death or the presence of the dead.

So, you're a newly-spawned Revenant. How spooky! One of the first things you may notice is that you look badass you have a large display to the right with a number and an E next to it. That's Essence, and it is your most important resource.
Your maximum health is your Essence, and it will regenerate up to 75 by default. If your Essence hits zero, you die, leaving a pile of blue dust that you will revive from within a minute if not scattered.
