Fate of the Undead
After your life was unexpectedly cut short through malicious means, something goes awry, and you are brought back to life. As the only being to escape death, you must now right wrongs and discover the truth or face a bleak fate worse than death.
Fate of the Undead is a high-fantasy text-based piece of interactive fiction where you can choose how your character’s story goes. Loosely based on a medieval era with magic, this adventure is a story with optional elements of romance, trauma, and mystery.
-
Customise your character’s name, gender, appearance, personality, and skills.
-
Choose from five unique backgrounds with their own stories (deity, prodigy, criminal, dragon, and eldritch vulture).
-
Romance, befriend, hate, or ignore a range of gender-selectable companions (including the healer who saved your life, ambitious demon royalty, an isolated yet powerful being, and a morbidly creative dragon).
-
Travel around the realms as you complete quests, fulfil personal goals, and evade the grim consequences of your undead state… not all of which are external.

Side Note
Hello people, I am Amy. 
I have been reading IF for many years and fiction stories for even longer. I eventually wanted to make my own so when I came up with this idea and developed it, I was hooked. I love fantasy and having a lot of choice so made sure these were significant parts of my story.
This is my first time properly writing something so I do not mind if this is imperfect. This is a great learning opportunity and will pave the way for better future interactive fiction projects.
All feedback is highly welcomed (grammar, inconsistencies, suggestions, what you liked, etc.) here and on tumblr, even if it’s negative. Though, if it is negative do elaborate and try to be polite, thank you.
I hope you enjoy wherever this goes. Have a great day! 
really good so far, I’m looking forward to read more
