    I love the fact that it's a Jerry Garcia doll (the Grateful Dead were banned in my congregation as a young adult.) Your Sparlock conversion looks great!

    Incidentally, Garcia was in a band called the Warlocks before the GD.

The traveler then either pays off the dead person's debt or pays for burial. The traveler is later rewarded or has their life saved by a person or animal who is actually the soul of the dead person...
