Did this a while ago, but didn't upload it for...well, reasons I can't remember.

Story goes that once upon a time, my lil' Herz Hessian found himself in a panfandom RP. This RP took place on a boat called the Elegante, and not a month after he'd come back, this boat was attacked by an evil, parasitic pirate ship run by zombie pirates much like ReDeads.

It gets better.

Herz, being the peaceful book lover, happened upon the first wave of monstrosities while in the ship's library. Caught off guard, he was quickly overwhelmed and taken hostage. As the pirates dragged his beaten form back to the ship, one of his fellow passengers happened upon the scene. Herz was too far off to rescue without venturing into the pirate ship--something passengers were warned strongly against--so his ally had no choice but to shoulder his blaster and put his trust into the ship's System--a mysterious bit of technology that brought the dead back to life.

Herz was killed in No Man's Land; a stretch of fleshy ground between the Elegante and the pirate ship. Strained, the System restored him, but...not completely.

His eyes are now not unlike black glass, as well as sensitive to light. Ashamed, he hides them behind sunglasses. He no longer considers himself human...

I goddamn love the level of angst, you don't even know
