Welcome
Hollow One in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Hollow One
A Hollow One, is someone within whom the void left behind by their departed soul is filled with strange magic. Some beings find that, days after they died, they awaken, clutching to life, with only a terrible emptiness inside to remind them of their death. The transition from life to becoming a Hollow One affects different people to different degrees. Some let their anger and regret consume them. Others use their second chance to become a brighter force in the world. However, all Hollow Ones are marked by their new existence: feelings of unease, dread or sadness cling to them like tattered rags of their past life.
