Risen is a term used to describe a wraith that has managed to return to its body to walk among the living in the Skinlands. For want of a better term, Risen are almost zombies, however without the slow gait, decaying flesh, or need to eat brains. To become a Risen is one of the closest guarded secrets in the Shadowlands; however, with help, it can be done.
== Advantages and Disadvantages ==
Risen gain the following advantages over regular wraiths.
* A body. Risen can roam among the living for as long as they exist and take care of their body, far longer in the Skinlands than even a powerful Proctor.
* Innate abilities of wraiths. Risen still possess Lifesight, Deathsight, and heightened senses.
* Conduit tracing. A Risen will always know the general location of the Conduit if it leaves their sight.
* Sturdier frames. Risen take more damage than a regular human and do not register pain in the same way, unless the injury is done by an object that deals aggravated damage.
* Unrestricted Arcanoi Castigate, Fatalism, Flux, Intimation, Keening, Mnemosynis, and Usury can be used as normal.
* New Arcanoi. Risen may learn the Risen-specific Arcanoi Fascinate or Serendipity.
* Vampiric Disciplines. Risen may also learn Celerity, Fortitude, Obfuscate, or Potence, using Pathos to fuel these powers instead of blood points.
Risen have the following Disadvantages:
* Cold to the touch. A Risen always feels clammy and corpse-like.
* Cannot eat. A Risen who attempts to eat will regurgitate food after a very uncomfortable period of nausea.
* Angst doubled. Any Angst gained when using an Arcanos ability is doubled.
* Conduit damage. Any damage to a Conduit threatens a wraith's existence in their body. Damaged Conduits keep a wraith from healing their Corpus completely.
* Conduit separation. A Risen kept from their Conduit for more than a day will have their body start to decay rapidly. A Risen who loses all of their Corpus falls straight into Oblivion with no Harrowing.
* Limited Arcanoi Only certain abilities from Inhabit, Lifeweb, and Pandemonium can be used.
* Unusable Arcanoi Argos, Embody, Phantasm, Moliate, Outrage, and Puppetry cannot be used by Risen because their physical presence in the Skinlands makes these abilities useless or non-functional.
