Add Ghosts

All the deceased should have their funerals held. Otherwise, they will come back to find you.

Slavs believe that the dead pose a threat to them, so they use rituals to protect themselves. For example, if a person dies, the entire village prepares banquets and dances. If not, the soul of the deceased may feel that you don't like them too much and they will come back to you. In order to avoid being influenced by his ghost in the future, the relatives of the deceased will not carry the body out of the main entrance of the house, but dig a hole in the wall, and then the relatives will carry the body out of the hole. After the funeral, they will reattach the walls and block the holes. They believe that this prevents the soul from finding its way home.
Early Slavs had a special attitude towards non natural deaths, believing that these people needed to be remembered and respected because they believed that non natural deaths would not go to the underworld, so their souls might stay, and if such a situation occurred, their souls might return to their families. If this happens, people need to seek help from Volhv.

I really like this part, add 'ghost resentment'
The deceased must be buried within 24 hours of in-game time, otherwise they will come back to accompany you. They will attack you and nearby players at random times within 5 to 15 minutes, attacking everyone once. Each attack increases the 'ghost's resentment', with an initial value of 50 for 'ghost's resentment'. Ghosts will destroy items in the player's hands or lower the quality of the items made.
It is necessary to show respect for the deceased by decorating their graves and placing offerings, in order to reduce the "ghost's resentment". Each time -100. Until the value returns to zero, the ghost will leave forever.
