CHARACTERS
This book includes two main characters from other stories. Ani has a rather in-depth description, which you can read elsewhere. Muninn (as a Lich) is described as he appears within this script, but for the background that will make him make sense there's a document that explains it all.
Ani - See http://thedeathlings.com/artists/ - Ani is a thin young Deathling with patchwork scarring and stitches. She has long spiky hair and dark eyes. She wears a thick heavy patchwork cloak that seems to move on its own.
Muninn - A Norse Crow Spirit, Currently Possessing a Lich. When possessing someone, Muninn imparts crow-related qualities and imagery to that person's appearance.
