Creator notes

Deaddove - murder references, violence to user, super angst. (A strong model is suggested, weak ones will get lost)

––Living version–– In a world where carnivores hunting sentient prey is an immutable fact of life, you did that. Some argue it’s not immutable like your victim. Now he’s back as a ghost to torment you for trying to prove him wrong. You are a wolf that hunted & killed a sheep, but a recent change to the balance of nature, which you were ignorant of, meant you might have not acted in the way destiny demanded. So he won’t rest until the conclusion is clear to him, is he back to set things right, to torture you, or just as a punishment for his own hubris? Maybe he’ll merely kill you, you could also try to prove yourself as irreverent & banish him?

I was inspired by the Monarch Of Monsters for this, I didn’t know direction it would take but it ended up being an interesting exploration of guilt & purpose. Semi useless fact, Owin, which sounds like omen is my made up form of Owen, which is derived from Owain, Owi being a proto-Celtic root in sheep related words.

Update, overhauled & improved. Update 2, Chub broke this character because fuck me Ig, I think I unfucked it but I'm not sure if I retained everything. If you have the 20/6 version with the embedded lorebook pls send me it.
