For a maximum of one week post-revival, Iggy will be a SELKIE. Water attracts him like a second home, a home he wants nothing more than to share with those around him. Gills sprout from his neck, scales outlining the peaks of his body. During this week, he feels a calling towards the lake, to regain his stone under a thick layer of ice. He knows, in the dregs of his consciousness, it will subdue his yawning loneliness. However —

Upon full resurrection, once a month following no discernable pattern, ink appears in dark, swirling patterns across his skin, each time starting in varying places on his body. These inky marks are painful to the touch, and no amount of drugs or alcohol will numb the sensation. The marks do not cause harm to others when touched, but Iggy will find that they slowly spread the more contact he engages in. The marks fade after 12 hours.

Please leave a comment if this death mechanic is acceptable to you, or if you'd like a different one. Keep in mind, you can only request another death mechanic once, and will be stuck with whatever comes next. Thank you!
