Heh, someone becoming a revenant could take years. The Raven Queen is a fickle mistress after all. Sides even if my character died and came back as one he'd have little to no memory of his past life. Not to mention my character wouldn't even start as a ranger in that case anyway. More likely to be an Eladrin wizard.

Well, the canon D&D deities are not going to be used for the RP. That's why it'd be possible for you to become a revenant.

The antagonist of the RP, the Kingdom of Nirshire, doesn't just go on the genocide without trying to reap from it. Essentially, when mages are captured they are given an option to conform into the Nirshire military under a curse oath (a magical branding that'd prevent them from swaying to the other side), or death. Your character becoming a revenant could be the result of them trying to experiment outside of their curse branding, due to the die or die scenario the branding gives captured magi.
