Be Zhuangzi's useless tree. Too gnarled for the carpenters to cut down.

As my old man used to say, "it's better to be used than to be useless".

Going to play a necromancer in our next campaign. The twist is he's a happy little lawful good halfling. Goes around performing funeral, death and undeath services!
