Husks

Husks are a unique form of undead in that they have lost their souls, but continue on as a physical body that houses memories and emotions. Husks are prone to bouts of existential crisis, rot (depending on how they died initially), and persecution at the hands of those that discover their secret. Some husks are aware of their status and attempt to hide it, although a large portion have no idea that they have died already. Not all husks even remain "alive" for very long; warriors in battle that have inexplicably gained a second wind may actually be reanimated husks, pantomiming the actions of their past life.

While it is usually the case, there are extremely rare cases of husks continuing on without a body. These are essentially powerful memories trapped and replayed over and over in a certain location, usually associated with one's death. These haunting images can be extremely unnerving, providing fertile ground for local legends and terrifying myths.

Husks were created as an experiment by Curator, displaying how mortals can continue on in a fashion after their souls have been removed.
