Unless I'm missing something from the patch notes, denying someone a burial seems pretty...ez. You can just lift a person you killed after your outlaw decays, or bring alts around to bring back bodies. The hour-long window for outlaw is really irrelevant; in previous worlds people would camp bodies (hour-long decay) since they couldn't be lifted just for the skull. Now that there's even further incentive to camp bodies, counter-play to losing your body should exist.
Destroying bodies should be a long process done over the course of a month. People should only destroy bodies of people they have a reason to dislike besides them being a random they found in the woods. I'm thinking maybe they have to fight a pseudo nidbane every time they try to destroy the body, and they can only attempt every 24 hours.
In addition, the inheritor should be able to track their ancestor's body.

Re: Burial denial sounds 2ez
I like these.
Or maybe there could be a new type o scent, with a nidbane worse than murder (like 2x the strength) for when a body is "messed with".
There's no honor in destroying the body - even the one of your enemy. Being the lore of the game greatly inspired by celtic and nordic mythos, dishonoring the dead should be a shameful action. Not that it matters right now, but if Valhalla is ever useful, dishonoring a body should also "remove" the right to go to Valhalla.
