Revenants are vengeful spirits, visible ghosts, or living corpses that was believed to return from the grave with a vengeance. The belief in the apparitions is below the universal rituals to propitiate the dead, to keep them in their place. Although later legend and folklore depict revenants returning for a specific purpose (for example, getting revenge on the deceased's murderer)

Biography[]

Heroic Side[]

Revenants are said to return to the living realm to take revenge on those who wronged them in their previous life. In a typical myth, only wicked or evil people tend to turn into revenants. Rarely, however, there were cases where a particularly strong willed individual had died before fulfilling an important task or a promise and would return as a revenant to complete what was left unfinished.
