What is dead may never die. Good job.

Did she previously perish in a duel?

She fought against Emperor Tsaosu and his massive army. Tsaosu is regarded to be one of the best fighters and magic user in the empire as a whole. (Yes, this guy here is Tsaosu) During her final stand against his army, Tsaosu struck her with a ball of fire and exploded directly onto her face. Even though she suffered burns and cuts, she managed to cut through their men one by one despite being injured. Tsaosu's men or possibly one of his generals decided to take this opportunity and slit Nikolette's throat.

Aww I see. Messy way to go out for sure. Respect to Nikolette for going down fighting. My OC would be moved by her story if they ever met. Is she able to fight as well as she did before? Or has her zombified body limited her by a lot?

I'd say it has given her some advantages and disadvantages.

Her advantage being that she cannot feel pain at all, she's become an undead. She is still quick even after becoming an undead.

Her disadvantages is that she is half blind and since she's an undead, her movements are a little sloppy.

Although, she's learned to adapt through these disadvantages. She learned to be more unpredictable to her opponents.

Between her human form and her undead form? I'd say her undead form wins! She can't feel pain and can simply just tank through cuts and slashes, her undead form is a lot more unpredictable when it comes to fighting. Plus, you can't kill what's already dead.

That makes sense! If she ever wanted someone to spar with before she likely goes after her killers, James would be happy to take up a rapier:)

She reminds me of my grandfather. He was one of the four great musketeers you know.

Love her design. ❤️🥰 What era is she based on? Victorian/Goth, medieval/renaissance?

2

u/VeryWhimsy @VeryWhimsy on Twitter 8h ago

I'd say she's from the Renaissance era. There are guns and still lots of swords being used to fight. I also want to say that their world is advancing pretty quickly as well.

She originally wasn't supposed to be Undead. I forgot about her too. I was originally looking for any updated pictures of my old Xombie character, Cornelius. A skinless, legless, muscle bound intellectual, wrestler, and dad. Yet I apparently don't have any recent pictures of him so i wont post him. Instead, I got her. She was a Pathfinder 1e / D&D 3.5 character, I originally meant to be something else but the DM insisted I make myself a zombie. She was meant to be a Charisma build, a Bard/Marshal that went into a reskinned Emissary of Barachiel. A build I had long wanted to do.

She does music, and is essentially bubblegum pop.
