==Capabilities==
The user either is or can become a revenant, a visible ghost or animated corpse believed to return from the grave to haunt/terrorize the living. 
In most cases, revenants return from the grave for vengeance on those who wronged or killed them or harassed their families or friends. Revenants can spread disease among the living, or suck the blood of the living, much like vampires.
Revenants are beings who have returned, especially from the dead, hence why the word revenant is derived from the Old French word, revenant, the "returning" (see also the related French verb revenir, meaning "to come back") whether they are ghosts, spirits, zombies to living people.
