How does this build work?

Past Life: Select a race other than revenant. You can
take feats, a paragon path, and an epic destiny that
have the selected race as a prerequisite, as long as you
meet all other prerequisites.
Notice, your not that race for purposes of Paragon Paths, you can simply take Paragon Paths that have that race as a prerequisite. This allows you to Qualify for Self-Forged. So now your a Double Warforged Ghost.

Then comes Epic where you become an Archlich, which basically makes you a Double Warforged Ghost Lich.

Is this build Optimized? No, Doesn't have nearly enough necrotic or fear powers. Is it an Absurd Concept? Yes.

Aside from doubling up on stuff, you're already a Zombie Robot Ghost.

I'm sure Ninja and Pirate will feature as classes at some point, so we can have the Real Ultimate Zomninjirateghostbot.

Use Gralamin's Gestalt 4e rules, be Rogue/Sword Coast Corsair on the other side. And then you're a Zombie Pirate Robot Ghost Ninja.

Yes, but using your own rules is a bit too absurd.

Star, if you stay quiet, no one will hurt you.

(8) Death's Blessing
...
(12) Death Scorned
I like how Death first blessed you then scorned you.

"So you think you can love me then leave me to die?"

I hadn't even noticed that. Nice Catch.
