The Hollowed
"If you must cross the Desecration then be quick about it! Do not tarry long, light does not penetrate that place as it does in the eyes of a god, and in those shadows, there are things that were left behind when Lakoti sucked the life from that place, things that given the chance will suck the life out of you"When Lakoti of the keys was attacked in mortal form during the Garamanti expansion wars his reaction was to draw back, consolidate his power and save himself. when he did this all life in a 100 mile wide band around the city-state was absorbed into him. This action created the Desecration and with it the Hollowed. The Hollowed are the empty shells of the former faithful who were manning the frontline of the battlefield on that fateful day. For their furver they were rewarded by having their souls consumed by their god, leaving behind nothing but an empty shell and a fragment of something, just enough to animate and drive to kill.A merchant warning a would be travler to Garamant of the dangers in the Desecration.
Basic Information
Anatomy
Looking like a human at first glance the Hollowed could easily be mistaken for weary travellers. It is only on closer inspection that you can see the tell-tale signs, the first thing most notice is their eyes, or lack of them, then as you stare upon the creature you see that its flesh empty, the arms bend not where the elbows would be but at any point. A Hollow is just that, Hollow, nothing more than skin housing a single fragment of a soul long since lost.
Ecology and Habitats
The Hollowed have only ever been found in the desecration. they wonder aimlessly attacking any traveller they come across.
