'Me neither. What work do you do? Do you have a job?'
"I run Grouper Corp. with my previous life's adopted son, Wesley Grouper. We are equal partners, but my job is mostly to handle the Abdead market, letting him handle the humanoids. I'm also head of R&D, as my intellect has a signature brutality to it that not many others can exactly match."

"Poison, by definition, is lethal or causes sickness. I am making so much more than just war machines. I have canned food for millions, produced farm equipment that produced food for those cans, and provided relief to veterans through prosthetics. The reason I make war machines is purely so that actual people don't have to fight in those wars. Not even a necromancer can do what I do."
"And not even a necromancer can turn their poisons into medicines to help the sick."
"But on what scale? I'm sure you could make plenty of medicine, but how will you distribute it? If there was a plague right now, you might be able to make enough medicine to save every person affected, but you won't get there fast enough... without machines to help you. And while I do appreciate medicine, poison is still a pathetic weapon in most cases."
"But with poison, we can so easily make it a disease as well."
'Ah, you have had many lives? Same. And a brutal intellect is as beautiful as a fine diamond to me'
"Not many. I am what is called a Shadow, an embodiment of a person who previously existed, formed out of memories and mud. I'm not an exact copy, but I kept my mind and most of my personality. The soul of the old me is off in the afterlife, and likely not a good one."

The Shadow snorts.
"Evil is a weak force. Not worth the effort of trifling with. Creatures that treat it as an ideology, however, can be useful tools. I tend to avoid those minions though, as they are often too selfish to work as a group for an extended period of time."

'Ah, selfishness. A good form of Evil, but one of its weaker forms, I should say'
"True. Good and Evil are equally powerful, and neither is worth the effort of dedication, in my opinion. I veer toward 'evil' simply because it is simplest. Least restrictive. I don't treat it as a purpose or reason, as it isn't strong enough to be that. Community, as I've found, is much stronger, even if it tends to buckle under stress. My machines can brace a community, but not an embodiment of Evil. Evil would chew up my innovations and spit them out. Pearls before swine, as the saying goes."

"I find rats resourceful little creatures. Clever, too. Their ability to adapt and show endurance is a trait I've always admired. Not as good as Otyughs, but still pretty nice."

He snorts and smiles a bit, revealing many human teeth seemingly torn out of someone's jaw and implanted into his.
"You fear filth? You speak to an Abdead made of mud and corpses. Rats, filth, shadows... they are challenges at worst, staunch allies at best. Like most things, really. I prefer monsters, steel, and oil to be honest. They stand up better and for longer."
