The Revenants Are On Tour! [FanT]

The Revenants – The Multiverse’s Most Famous Undead Band!

There are many punk bands across the world.

There are many bands that have a degree of fame to their name.

None, however, are like the Revenants.

For the Revenants are Allanea’s most famous band of undead musicians. They twist together aggressive lyrics, rock music and influences from a wide bevy of musical traditions, together with guitar riffs performed by fingers which had long ceased to feel pain... and some knowledge of the magical arts, that fuses their performances with swirling illusions and some of the most amazing audio-visual effects.

The band’s songs are performed by Uriah King – a punk musician from the New Thermopilae arcologies, who continued singing even after he died from a cocaine overdose in his arcology apartment – and found out that being dead was actually having a sort of positive effect on his voice, enabling him to sing with that slightly growling rasp that punk audiences often love. Alongside him are bassist Fred ‘Barrabas’ Klopfenstein – a mohrg from Lower Kalandia, keyboardist Anastas ‘Komodo’ Hersch (actually, an undying kobold rather than literally a Komodo – but you can see how he earned the name), drummer Misha ‘Krampus’ Krasnov, and the band’s only living member, Talice Quavein, who is a young Drow lady supplying the group’s contralto (which is sort of hard to supply when you’ve been dead for a decade!). She happens to also be the team’s promoter and illusionist.

The Revenants are famous for their transgressive lyrics and songs, such as the singles Burn It Down (To the Ground), Scalpel and Knife and now, their first album, Self-Exhumation.

And so, to celebrate the release of Self-Exhumation, the Revenants are going on a tour, a tour that will have only 13 – count them, 13, a veritable Devil’s Dozen – stops! And two are already booked, in Liberty-City and Port-Allanea!

Dear Allanea
We would be delighted if you would consider New Aavalon City as one of your tour stops. As a people we are most keen on music of all kinds. We will collect and transport the group to our Islands and cover all costs as well as bar and room tabs.

Asmodeus, the CEO of Pandemonium Megalopolis, proudly requests a tour of the band through his magnificent city-world!

The Shining City of Gemity on Elicoor II always likes a good jam. Come on down!

Neo Zanarkand of Spira won't be left out! We'll get the best seats in the house!

Alola of Terra would like a tour as well. They'll bring the malasadas!

The Most Serene Planet of Juria requests a tour as well!

Finally, the Mobile City of Coredia itself wants to be the finale!

The Revenants thank you all!
We ask only that, in addition for the ordinary provisions for such a tool, piles of soil be prepared for our act (on the stage). As the act is called Self-Exhumation, band members will commence their act by digging themselves out of graves!

To: The Revenants' Agent
From: Mike Mulligan, PanDorn Events Company (a division of Club Spoor Resorts and Entertainment Management, Inc).
Subject: Hello!

To Whom it May Concern:

We've taken a look at your ad and have decided that it would make for a damn good show here in the Republic. We've got four venues in mind we'd like you to play at:

1. Nickopolis County--it's a world nestled in the Four Counties region of Dornieland (located in the Andromeda Galaxy), and it's one of said counties. Home to the famous counterculture venue of Colonel Jam's Bar and Grille as well as larger venues, a tour date here would bring over a lot of interest in an interesting setting!

2. New Magnitogorsk County--a world which is increasingly home to artsy sorts, they're rather appreciative of punk rock and individuals whose dedication to their artistic craft is uncompromised and always willing to push the limit. A tour of The Revenants here would surely be a hit.

3. Dornalian Earth/Earth SSR--obviously, if you make it here, your exposure across the Republic and beyond is going to be big. A tour date here will not want for any choice of music venues the Revenants feel would be best. From old Earth attractions such as the Troubadour in Los Angeles to more modern venues such as the Spacedock Music Hall located on MacIntyre Memorial Station in orbit, we've got it all. We can even put in the dirt for you.

4. New Sapporo, New Hokkaido County--Despite what you may have heard, the world and city of New Sapporo--capital of New Hokkaido County--is very much a happenin' place. With plenty of musical venues and an attitude which is more accommodating towards the kind of iconoclasm the Revenants represent and espouse than other parts of the County, it will be a boon to local punk fans to see someone of the Revenants' caliber come to New Sapporo and bring the house down with their brand of rock.

Please let us know if you have any questions. Thanks!

The hero-city and seaport of Ingáthern, the second city of the Eternal Republic in size and the first in commercial importance, was well known throughout the Europe-Atlantic as the scene of one of the most dramatic and harrowing sieges of the Kraven Wars. Its suffering during this siege remained fresh in the collective memory of Ingáthernians, preserved by the many great memorials to the battle. Most of these had about them a grim and cheerless aspect, many were rather morbid, one was a gigantic black obelisk having at its summit an enormous stone carving of an eagle, wings outstretched and tearing out the entrails of its prey, which held between its talons the limp white corpse of a man, naked and paler than the moon, on whose thigh was chiselled the words: ‘He was an enemy of Xirnium’.

Every year during Hocktide, Ingáthern hosted a festival for dark music and arts. More than 150 bands from various backgrounds, including gothic rock, gothic metal, death rock, industrial, darkwave, electro, metal, neofolk and medieval, and for some reason also including BDSM and fetish culture, played at venues throughout the city over the two days.

This year’s festival was expected to be the largest ever and a major event in the calendars of the goth, cybergoth, steampunk and rivet head subcultures across the world. Naturally, its organisers (including aggrotech vocalist Viola da Braccio, the chevalier d’Amor, and witch house guitarist Ignatian St Aldfrith), recognising the large and growing popularity which the leading band in Allanea’s ‘undeadcore’ scene had attracted among Xirniumites, petitioned the Revenants to tour during Ingáthern’s dark music and arts festival.

Typical Revenant Show

On the stage, soil is spread – dark, soft – and five tombstones are apparent. As the lights come on, the soil on the graves begin to move. The band members – four dead, one living – appear from beneath the soil (by what means Talice Quavein, the living drow, had managed to remain in a pile of earth while waiting for the show to start this is unclear to the viewer – it is accomplished by a few tricks of sleight of hand). As the band members rise from the ‘graves’, they begin to play, and the first notes of the album’s title song, Self-Exhumation, begin to play.

They follow through with other songs. Burn It Down, pumping with the vigor of anger and destruction, shakes the hall, as the drow’s clean contralto rings in contrast to the furious growling of the lead singer. Flames rise on the stage as the band sings.

For all the time we waited,
For all the lies you told,
For the dry bread you gave us,
And all the stolen gold!

It’s time to Burn – It – Down!
Burn it to the ground!
It’s time to Burn it down!
And hear the fire’s sound!

We’ll see your homes burning
We’ll hear your final screams,
We’ll smell your lifeblood boiling,
We’ll take payment for your sins!

It’s time to burn it down!
It’s time to grab the matches!
We’ll burn it to the ground!
It’s time to raise the torch!


From this, they move on to other songs – Local Apocalypse, Pathologist’s Table, and several other items in the same auditory style.

The Theocracy would be pleased to host a leg of the Revenant's World Tour.

Holy Marsh City itself has dozens of venues that can host concerts of any size they desire at any time they wish, while cities such as Alserta, St. Husky, the Mushroom Isles, Unstabar, Lilasap, Alturrn, and Khaska can host any number of shows they desire.

Welcome to come to AXUVA!
Axuva Today Network [ATN] Today we announce that the Axuvian Government now recognizes The Russian Language as an Official Language, Korean and English were spoken in the beginning, but there were Russians too, russians were forgotten and their language were not recognized due to the things they did in the past, but now their language is a official language of Axuva, and there will now be 3 official languages instead of two.
