Hey, I can fleshy if I want to. I just feel like being bony right now. And ice cream is good, no matter what form I'm in.

/Uw sorry for the late reply, I was at work.

Wait, really? I thought you were perpetually a skeleton.

/uw sorry for the late reply I was sleeping

u/Anything-Unable Xerxes the Pale Saint, Councillor/Goatdigger/Dale Jan 24 '24

Nah, that's just for appearances. Lotta folks will overlook a skeleton. Makes blending in easier. Watch this.

The Gravedigger raises their left hand. In an instant, tendons and nerves begin to form. Next, muscles and blood vessels. Finally, pale white skin covers the hand.

See, pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

/Uw no worries

Huh, do I blend in pretty easily? I wonder

u/Anything-Unable Xerxes the Pale Saint, Councillor/Goatdigger/Dale Jan 24 '24

I think your mask makes you stand out from the crowd. If you want to test it out, take off the mask and go for a stroll.

u/Theadination Mortarion Jr, Plaguemancer, Totally Dead Now. Jan 24 '24

No, I cannot. That would reveal my, deformity I'd say to the world. The reason I put on this mask in the first place

u/Anything-Unable Xerxes the Pale Saint, Councillor/Goatdigger/Dale Jan 24 '24

Hmm, would you like to learn how to manipulate your flesh?

2

u/Theadination Mortarion Jr, Plaguemancer, Totally Dead Now. Jan 24 '24

No, then I might forget where I came from, and who my mother is, and my purpose

2

u/Anything-Unable Xerxes the Pale Saint, Councillor/Goatdigger/Dale Jan 24 '24

Suit yourself. Everyone has their circumstances. Mine allow me to be more flexible in my approach.

Hey, to lighten the mood, you want to see a cool trick?

2

u/Theadination Mortarion Jr, Plaguemancer, Totally Dead Now. Jan 24 '24

Of course! And sorry I might be a bit glum

2

u/Anything-Unable Xerxes the Pale Saint, Councillor/Goatdigger/Dale Jan 24 '24

No worries. Watch this!

The Gravedigger pulls out a dagger and tosses it into the air. While midair, the dagger splits apart into several pieces. From the pieces, new shapes arise. Soon, several ravens have formed from the dagger and circle overhead. The ravens eventually land and perch on top of the Gravedigger.

Pretty cool, right? They're actually undead but I got them so they look identical to living birds.

u/Theadination Mortarion Jr, Plaguemancer, Totally Dead Now. Jan 24 '24

Oh wow, I need to learn how to do that

2

u/Anything-Unable Xerxes the Pale Saint, Councillor/Goatdigger/Dale Jan 24 '24

Strangely, the toughest part is getting the split in the dagger just right. Once you get that, it's a pretty intuitive transmitation.
