Electric Bone Flute
Troubadour
I've got an idea for an individual who discovers upon an early death and subsequent exhumation that he will "respawn" wherever he was buried if he isn't in his grave. Problem is, I don't know if this person would be well-adjusted after this. I'm shaping the character around the events foremost, so at least I don't have a fixed character in mind. I already envision that this person would be reclusive; I want it that he's exhumed a few years after for police investigation and so is a few years out of sync with the world. For the story, I want him to investigate his own murder by a serial killer/cannibal, politely the first time around, then no-Mr.-Nice-Guy the second before uncovering something even more unsettling about the killer; this would be his second and probably third death after discovering he comes back to life. Only problem is I don't know how unsettled such a person would be. Obviously we can't interview people who have died in very traumatic ways, but how would someone who has been affected in a severely traumatic way be able to handle confronting the stranger who directly harmed them multiple times?
