The unlucky few carry a heavy burden of death itself wander through society as pawns to the reaper. The first encounters of the shadow of death was on a stone tablet dating back to the ancient egyptians and continue to be encountered to this day. The only known death walkers are few and far between as they are only created in an event caused by and meant to kill those few but failed to do so. They are the few who carry the burden and walk among the innocent’s to carry out death’s will. Death curses them upon survival with a shadow of his power to follow over their souls and to kill any to cross their path. There is no way to escape this fate as once you are marked by one of the cursed one’s shadows unfortunate events follow you until their final breath. Many of these victims are forced with insanity or schizophrenia over time leaving them with the usual option of self suicide. Some how ever put themselves or are forced into mental asylums till the day they are cured or feel safe to wander the streets. The many stories of this occurrence began to appear in the middle ages when famine roamed the land, many thought it was a sign of god but those few knew the truth of these shadows that walk the Earth many of the high priest managed to keep this hidden from even the kings of times forgotten. The only possible way to stop a walker is to kill it once then it is for told their souls are taken by death and turned into a demonic revenant to continue to carry out the work of death and make sure those on death’s list shall die
