Kindness
"Death is a kindness"
Kindness embodies an act of generosity and consideration, without expecting praise nor reward in return. Kindness believes that death is the greatest act of kindness one could give, for it is her realm and she would care for those who have since departed away. Kindness is ensuring that life is as pleasant as it could be before the inevitable end, easing people's suffering and providing comfort inn the darkest time. Life is worth a few laughs after all, for this the greatest comedy.
Kindness takes many forms, for different cultures have different depictions of death and the afterlife. However, she prefers a more optimistic and playful look of death instead of the one that is tragic and mournful.
Blessings
Kindness favors self-aware undead, those who never outright refused her ultimate gift of kindness, death, but find themselves lost in between the realm of the living and death. However, she absolutely detest those who refuse death and find ways to prolong their lives in unnatural ways, therefore she finds herself detesting Liches and selfish necromancers but not immortals. Her followers tend to be gravekeepers, alchemists, mages, undead, taxidermists, doctors and plenty others.
Kindness blesses her Chosen Knight with the key to the realm of the dead, granting them with the assistance of the departed in a multitude of ways. One could potentially phase through matter or request assistance from the dearly deceased. Her idea of true necromancy is asking the dead for assistance, and beseech their aid, hoping that they would be kind enough to do one last service.
