Muka, the Undead Monk
🕑 Added 2024-10-01 21:47:58 +0000 UTCMuka died after she came to Latehaven.
She traveled to the afterlife to save her husband, Omir, who was swindled by a devil posing as a noble, promising a life of comfort for he and his wife should he come work for him.
As soon as she heard, she abandoned everything she owned, rushing to find someone willing to send her to the storied realm of Latehaven, ignoring people’s warnings that it’s only a paradise for the dead. Omir had been taken alive, after all.
She finally found a wizard willing to plane shift her, and went forth without so much as a second thought or a plan to get back.
The strange land and even stranger people of Latehaven, she found, weren’t welcoming to living people, making her quest all the more difficult, and all the more urgent. Without a soul willing to ally with her, someone claiming to be a spirit, calling herself Volpiko, appeared, offering to help Muka. She accepted.
A half-successful heist followed. Muka and Volpiko discovered the hideout of the devil who tricked Omir, far in the wastes outside of Latehaven’s city proper, conducting necromantic experiments on living creatures. Omir was still unscathed.
They managed to free Omir and several others, but were caught in the process. Fighting ensued. The devil fell. So too did Muka.
Having experienced Latehaven’s refusal of living people, Muka spent her last breath asking Omir to live the long elven life he was meant to on the material plane. She’d be here waiting for him, even if it took centuries.
Muka awakened, bound to the city of Latehaven and welcomed with open, skeletal arms. She knew it would be some time before she saw Omir again, but Latehaven was a peculiar place with strange rules, and she’d want to learn it well, so she could show him around when he arrived.
That was 258 years ago. Since then, she discovered power in patience after joining the monastery in Latehaven’s Senpou Temple. It was Volpiko’s recommendation that she join.
