Your soul is driven by unshakable force to persist beyond your natural demise! What undead form does your soul gravitate toward?

skeleton - the bones are all you need baby

zombie - I'll show up but I won't put in much effort

ghoul - I woke up hungry

ghost - I was never that attached to my body

revenant - I've got a mission and I'm going to get it done

poltergeist - I just like fucking with people

lich - my humanity was a burden I'm glad to be rid of

mummy - as dedicated to my beauty routine in death as in life

vampire - I am an elegant predator NO IT'S NOT A SEX THING, KNOCK IT OFF

vampire - yeah it's a sex thing

Your girlfriend came back from the dead "wrong", or at least that's what everyone says. She died quickly and slowly, far too young, and for a reason that would not have happened if the world was a better place. You were both going to the same college, she was majoring in film studies while you were majoring in necromancy, you lived in the same apartment together for so long. When you chose to bring her back you had to deal with faeries, and gods few people dare to pray to, but you got her back. Not because you deserved to have her but because she deserved to live.

She isn't what she used to be. Her face looks plasticish and embalmed, and because you didn't have that much skin to work with she's permanently sown into her clothing, that fancy outfit that was always her favorite. You didn't know it at the time but the spell gave her sharp teeth, and black eyes, and a desire for raw meat. It's not the body you would have given her if you had better ways of working. But your happy she's here. Your happy she's alive.

She's considered to have been revived wrong. You don't see it that way, the spells worked as well as they did. She's considered low functioning undead, creatures that are almost always thought of as entirely inhuman. She's considered a failure because she's not able to function like a human would, she doesn't move like a human, can't go out during daylight, acts erratically, is afraid a lot of the time. She's considered a failure because she can't work or go to school like she used to, even though she's alive that's not enough for most people. People are afraid she'll start going out at night and start attacking people on your block, she won't, even she's afraid of that but she doesn't need you to control her, she just has some very scary thoughts and abilities.

People sometimes say she's your experiment, or your pet, or like your daughter. She's not, she's still your girlfriend, you still love her and want to be with her. You comfort her when she's scared. You sing to her, and tell her about your day when you get home, and sit on the couch watching movies with her. You hold her to keep her warm because of how much having a cold body seems to upset her, and she'll push her face into your breasts, and touch you in ways someone touches their girlfriend.

Her parents act like she's fully gone. Calling her a mockery of her old self. Some higher functioning undead that you know have even called her an insult. And even a lot of people you know are so focused on the idea of her getting better. But you don't love her so that she can get better, you love her because it is a gift to love her, whatever form she may take.

Warriors without peer, Wights have had centuries to hone their martial arts. Wights are corporeal undead, much like Zombies, but they are far more dangerous. Unlike Zombies, Wights have lost none of their dexterity, speed, or intelligence in their rebirth.

Wight King that I did, not 100% satisfied with the base (may touch it up again sometime) but happy with the paint job

[dungeonsanddragonsfifthedition]

my book is coming out on august 20!!!

ethical necromancy is a collection of 7 short pieces of speculative fiction, all of which are about grief and loss. here's the proper summary:

A reanimated corpse finds herself longing to return to the grave. The ghost that haunts a house is forced into flesh. A young girl becomes obsessed with the cadavers that appear in the woods near her home. In Ethical Necromancy, the debut story collection from Bee Hyland, she explores the ramifications of a life after death. Playing with literary form and interrogating the grotesque, these seven stories seek to amplify the voices of the undead among us.

i struggle with self-promotion, so i'll just say this: i think that you, dear reader, will enjoy this collection.

talking points include: loss of autonomy, digging your own grave, the un-undead, lesbian codependency, the inherent horror of dying online, disability theory, and namelessness.

more pre-order links coming soon, but for now, here's your chance to pre-order on kindle.
