Baron Samdi

Baron Samedi is often a chaotic spirit and greatly enjoys smoking, drinking and interacting with people but he is also morbid by very nature and often when possessing others he will lay down on the ground and expects ritualists to perform ceremonies similar to those they would in funerals, despite all this he is generally happy among hosts and can even be difficult to convince to leave as he will often wish to stay for "one more drink".   Baron Samedi is loud, wild and rowdy. He enjoys parties and having a good time, and despite his drinking and party life style, Baron Samedi is also a man of class and style. While he is known for his foul language, he is also known to be a gentleman. He is the protector of the dead, but he doesn't mind taking a break from his job having some fun every once in a while. Baron not only protects and looks after the dead, but he guards the dead as well. He is an alcoholic and a smoker, with this trait along with his party life style rubbing off on his wife Madame Brigitte. However, being a priestess, Baron's wife is willing to focus on her job more then having partying and having fun. Sameldi, however, always is willing to have his wife shirk work and have fun instead. However, Baron Samedi does do well at his job. He is a mischievous trickster, making deals with people and bringing back the dead for his own purposes.   Because Baron Samedi is a man who enjoys making deals Samedi always holds up his end of a deal and doesn't like for anyone to back out or break a deal he has made. Since he is also a man who likes to have fun Samedi also like to play tricks and tries to turn a dull moment into a party. Because Samedi is usually in a good mood he is able to charm many people with his words and manner. Despite the fact he can be rude, drinks, smokes and his use of foul words Samedi is rarely shows any regret or guilt for his choices. He is satisfied and comfortable with his life because he has everything he could ever want. Baron Samedi rarely has anything to worry about he mostly stays calm and relaxed hardly ever getting angered or nervous.   As well as being master of the dead, Baron Samedi is also a giver of life. He can cure any mortal of any disease or wound, if he thinks that it is worthwhile. His powers are especially great and impressive when it comes to curses and black magic. Even if somebody has been afflicted by a hex which brings them to the verge of death, they will not die if the Baron refuses to dig their grave. So long as this mighty and influential spirit keeps them out of the ground they are safe. He also ensures all corpses rot in the ground to stop any soul being brought back as a stupid, brainless, and unintelligent zombie. What he demands in return depends on his mood. Sometimes, he is content and happy with his followers wearing black, white or purple clothes or using sacred objects; he may simply ask for a small gift of cigars, rum, black coffee, grilled peanuts, or bread. But sometimes the Baron requires a ceremony to help him cross over into this world.
