Hollow Knight [HB]

When a Hollow Knight is chosen, they receive a vision, typically of a large, pitch-black, subterranean cavern, strewn with corpses of pitch-black bodies, adorned with chitinous masks. A voice will come to them, two merged into one. A female, motherly voice and a male, authoritative voice deliver the message of their being and purpose. The message speaks of the chosen person being born of 'void', 'root', and 'god', and that their purpose is to 'defeat the haunting Light'.

A Hollow Knight, no matter the race, will wake with a certain sense of fulfilment, yet emptiness will also inhabit them. They will find their eyes have turned a constant, pupilless black. They will also find a weapon(s), a cloak, and a chitinous mask that will fit over their face perfectly. The weapon(s) will always be perfectly balanced for the Knight, and the cloak will fit over the Knight perfectly. If the weapon(s) is(are) drawn with the cloak and mask adorned, the person's body will become pitch-black, the mask will fully cover the head, and the cloak will remain the same, this is the proper form of a Hollow Knight, all racial traits are retained in this form.
