-can totally tank lightning and Get Better
-but not twice
-is the sworn enemy of giant lightning-slinging books everywhere

Endless bookshelves (IRch7pg21-ch8pg16)
Relevance:
-sent to some place with a lot of water and bookshelves
-apparently agreed to it?!
-STILL GETS HUNGRY
-AND TIRED
-oh my god this tiny book is alive
-Owen's flipping his shit….

Regeneration
Okay, so the deal is thus. Hunter can heal from PRETTY MUCH ANY WOUND because he is. Not alive. There are two ways to power this ability, since (being dead) he does not possess the life force to do so himself. He can use the blood of someone with serious magic power (specifically Serin, the necromancer who made him undead), or… Well. The pictures below cover it pretty well. (reads from left to right)

Yep, he absorbs the life force of anything within a certain range of himself, from the grass to bystanders to his little brother to the head of lettuce growing in his apartment, and has absolutely no control over it. The more severe the injury, the more life force he takes, and there's no way for him to hold himself back.

He doesn't know this yet, so I'll be avoiding getting him too injured if at all possible until he remembers the life-leeching clause. Unfortunately, that information will render him KIND OF AN AATHER HATER so. Biding my time.
