Re: resurrection/dimensional travel in fantasy/sci-fi

I'm following a fic called Natural 20* that abuses Dungeons and Dragons's various mechanics for reviving the dead. One or another of the various D&D settings could work well with your fic, and you'd just need to read up on the setting details rather than reading an entire series.

* It's a Harry Potter crossover. Remember how hard and ultimately pointless preventing natural death was in that canon? That's all out the window now.

AYRT--thanks for the heads up! Also, ooh, new HP fic to read.

I'm probably going to have the character ultimately brought back in the universe described in Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor, which includes both magical resurrection (via glorified charm necklaces made of teeth) and dimensional portals, with passing mentions of a couple of Greek myths (which the canon I'm writing for already stole, since Midas, Medusa, and Pegasus make brief appearances), a few other cultures' myths (why stop with Greece), Star Wars (because they've got force-ghosts and also cloning and it's owned by Disney, which also owns the canon I'm writing for), and The Thinking Woman's Guide to Real Magic by Emily Barker (a little girl who was eaten gets ...er... reconstituted by means of putting her gnawed bones and a dead rabbit in a cooking pot and leaving it to simmer overnight.)

If I mention anything from D&D it'd be in passing as the characters research how to bring someone back from the dead, since it's a gaming system rather than a world in itself. Or maybe it counts as lots of teeny related worldlets in the minds of countless DMs.
