Characters

Roderick (he/him) A young man who tried to prove himself to his betrothed and her family that he was a worthy partner for her by joining the king's troops. He fell on the battlefield not long after he had left home together with his loyal dog, Pretyman. Roderick was one of many who were resurrected by death mages, but unlike most his soul remained intact. He remembers almost everything about his life, his family, and how he had died. To rid himself of this curse, he joins the knight Gawain, who might know how to return their souls to the realm of the dead.
