I'm gonna declare my remains holy relics and have individual bones shipped to assorted churches, temples, mosques, and synagogues.

Contrary to popular belief, human beings are not secretly skeletons, they're eldritch horrors hiding inside a skeleton:



Which is why humanity as a whole is insane.

I just want to be buried in the forest in the mountains where bugs and whatever critters dig me up can eat my meat and make me a dope skeleton.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, carbon to carbon.

But apparently that's "illegal" and "it would be really hard to haul your corpse up the mountain, and would raise many questions".

gently caress you, Big Cemetery. I know your game.

I want one of those cool sky burials where they just toss me in a field and let the scavengers pick me clean.

This isn't a joke. Every time I try to explain it I get told I'm crazy.

It's not crazy let the dang animals get something outta me I don't want to be put in a box.

My friend wants to be tossed in the ocean so the critters can have at. Ain't nothing wrong with feeding critters.

There's also one where they put you in a spore suit and mushrooms can grow from you. Green burials are pretty cool and there are lots of options!

if you do both the death and burial yourself (if you know what I mean) this costs $0 and nobody can stop you

I already have the organ donor mark printed on my driver's license so I can't join you, op, but it does sound cool.

I dunno what kind of organs they can use. My liver is pretty shot and my heart is probably not in the best condition compared to a super athlete. Maybe they can give it to some kid and she can unironically joke that she may look like she's in her 20s, she has a heart of a 40 something. And then wear a The Cure concert shirt unironically.

Anyways, I hear organ donors or whole body donors get their body cremated after use so the next of kin will only get a cardboard urn full of ashes so that sounds like a nice cheap option. Then I guess someone could throw it off a boat or mix it with some fertilizer and plant a tree or whatever.

My will actually specifies that my ashes are to be divided into 1/3rds, upon threat of haunting.

1/3 to the forest mountains. 1/3 to to the sea. 1/3 to the wind.

I would still just like to have my meat eaten by bugs and animals, but whatever, it's a compromise.

Put me back! :colbert:

I've legit thought about having my remains planted in a tree but then I realized I didn't want to be a sheet of paper for some dumb loving kid to write dumb poo poo on, so I guess I'd rather contaminate the ocean's waters as if it wasn't already filled with whale cum.

According to Monster Manual (1st edition), a zombie has twice as many hit points as a skeleton, so I’d prefer that option. If I went for the full “wrapped in bandages” delux package I could be a mummy, which has a bunch more hit points plus some special abilities, but I worry it’s outside my price range.

Zombies smell though. An old skeleton is nice and clean.

Sure, more brittle, but wayyy less gross.

don't skeletons have immunity or resistance to slashing damage and/or piercing damage?

sounds like a good tradeoff to me. Most parties have a sword and board chump and a mage that already casted their only magic missile on a friendly elf npc by accident.

probably better off just staying in the tavern and rolling for wenches
