Hollow One

Hollow Ones are those who were resurrected by the strange magic of Blightshore, brought back without their soul but still with a sense of self.

Appearance
Hollow Ones appear the same way as they did in life. While spells or abilities that detect undead will correctly identify Hollow Ones as such, they otherwise look like living creatures.

History
The magic of Blightshore is what creates Hollow Ones, so they arose after the Calamity. They are mostly found in Wildemount, and are wholly accepted in the society of Blightshore, even making up a small but significant minority of the population of Rotthold.

Powers and Abilities
Hollow Ones, as revived undead, do not age and are immune to any aging effects. They are also more likely to come back from unconsciousness unaided. And while they do appear no different than living creatures unless specifically detected by spells intended to identify undead, they can use the strangeness of their resurrection to rattle others around them, making them feel a vague sense of unease.

Notable Hollow Ones

 * Jamedi Cosko, adventurer hired by Avantika.

Trivia

 * Insects appear to be aware that Hollow Ones are undead, as they did not bother Jamedi on Urukayxl.
 * Brennan Lee Mulligan, a DM friend of Matt's, helped playtest the Hollow One supernatural gift with his character Deadeye on Not Another D&D Podcast.
