Coldbloods do give their curse to those they slay. But not always. They cannot choose who their affliction is passed on to. And there seems no rhyme or reason as to which of their victims will turn and which will simply stay dead. It could be the victim rises only a few heartbeats after death. But more often, days or even weeks pass. And in the meantime, their corpse will go the way of all flesh. When it rises, a coldblood’s victim will be locked forever in the state in which it turned. Beautiful and whole. Or otherwise.’
