A time-lost revenant, risen not from the death of a single individual but of many - its bones fused together from the young and the elderly and different species altogether. Whether they were all the victims of a single massacre or a thousand souls discarded over a thousand years, is impossible to say now; history does not remember them. But one thing is clear: they will fight to change that until every last memory they have left burns away.
Nobody rasps: We... will be... remembered!

A revenant formed from the collective resentment of an entire host of people who died alone and forgotten, they burn through multiple different identities as you fight them (and must be 'killed' repeatedly to put them to rest for good.) They spawn at the same depth as Sojobo.
Their Pyrrhic Recollection ability consumes a memory to restore them to full health and temporarily give them access to a single powerful spell (or occassionally a pair of them, if one didn't stand alone well enough). These include many conjurations, but also summoning and some support spells like Haste or Cause Fear. They will use this ability shortly after being first damaged, and also to avoid a killing blow (each consuming one of 3 total memories they have to burn.)
