Deathless is a supernatural horror thriller story series written by Graveyard Greg which began in October 2009 and ended on March 5, 2010. It derives from Russian mythology, particularly the legends of Koschei and Baba Yaga.

Synopsis[edit]

Ivan, a Russian snow leopard expatriate student who is studying at University of Nevada, Reno, roomed with Hopper (a rabbit), Darryl (a hyena) and Hopper's pet iguana Iggy. However, after having found out about his father's murder in his homeland, he becomes a target of a malevolent spirit, known in the old country as Koschei the Deathless, who is hunting Ivan and an egg which was sent by his father to Ivan's address not long before his murder. Ivan flees his apartment building and joins with Tank, the owner of a nearby gym, and Tank's friends in a fight against both the malevolent spirit, which has taken possession of Hopper's body, and an accompanying infection which turns its victims into monstrous, zombified versions of themselves.
