Memento Mori - The Fallen of Aurea

Memento Mori - Fallen Player Characters

Serra (Lawful Good Samurai/Omdura) Mostly unknown tengu woman. A cheery, bright personality albeit a bit over talkative and inquisitive. Clearly naive, lost to the nightmarish zombie plague only days after arriving. No one ever even knew her name.

Lazaro (Chanotic Neutral Dhampir Vampire Hunter/Bard)
A brave dhampir who fought against the undead twice. Unfortunately on his second battle he fell to the ravages of the undead chickens and his allies were unaware of his dhampir nature.

O'Phuk Mainees (Goblin Barbarian)
One of the last adventurers to come through via the Aurelian City portal before the city's destruction. They stylized themselves as a Shin Reposessor and scrimshaw artist, though never really got a chance to ply either trade as a Zombie Plague descended upon the land and O'Phuk jumped at the chance to get fresh bones for their craft. Unfortunately O'Phuk contracted the Zombie Plague and, rather than seeking out aid at the healer camp, chose to take their own life to avoid becoming a threat to the populace.

Memento Mori - Dead Non-Player Characters

Alan Riverfoot, The God Tripper (Monk/Fighter/Opportunist/Rogue/Champion)
Mythic denizen of Aurelian and owner of the Gilded Rose. A rarely seen weathered, balding halfling in a loose robe over simple but clean Commoner's Clothes. Even his attire under the robe is loose over tight, yellowed skin. He seems to have no extra weight to his form, and a once charming face is pulled tight by age or some other process. He always seems to be armed, with an unusual sheath on his hilt with a leather and bone handle sticking out. Slits in his clothing and robes, holding them in place, are a pair of folded wings covered in vermillion feathers. Downy vermillion feathers are also slowly creeping up the back of his head, replacing black hair that seems to be almost gone.
The God-Tripper was in his inn when Aurelian was destroyed. Character Sheet
