Hollow One[]
Summary: Hollow Ones are skeletons created by the energies of the negative energy plane rather than from the bones of once living creatures.
Physical Description[]
Hollow Ones are physically similar to human skeletons of any humanoid race except that their joints are fused together by a flexible material with a bone white colour but there are some that look like they did when they died basically like zombies but there flesh does not rot .Unlike normal skeletons or zombies Hollow Ones are not as endowed with necrotic power and as such their skeletal structure does not allow them to make claw attacks or resist some physical attacks as greatly as normal skeletons or zombies
Origin[]
Hollow Ones are created by an uncarnate druid summoning them from the negative energy plane into existence to do battle for them or other reasons. If they survive and wish to remain on the plane they are allowed to do so. As such, they vary greatly from one to the next in abilities and personality.
Clothing[]
Hollow Ones wear typical humanoid clothing for the area they inhabit but may choose to wear completely concealing clothing if they inhabit an area where it might be dangerous to reveal their identity.
Lands[]
Hollow Ones generally inhabit the land they are summoned onto but are not bound to any location.
Food Acquisition and Diet[]
Hollow Ones cannot eat or drink and do not need to do so to survive.
Dwellings[]
Hollow Ones may either live among humanoids in typical dwellings or choose to isolate themselves.
Personality[]
Hollow Ones are largely varied in their personalities.
Relations[]
Hollow Ones can vary in their relations to other races depending on how they fit into society and their starting personality.
Alignment[]
Hollow Ones generally tend towards neutral alignments but can be of any alignment.
Religion[]
Hollow Ones are not particularly biased towards or away from any religion.
Language[]
Hollow Ones speak the language of the thing that summoned them but may pick up the languages of the area they inhabit.
Names[]
Hollow Ones tend to be named by their summoners or sometimes fashion names for themselves.
