Homebrew Fearling Species Details
Fearlings are creatures of shadow but no substance, unable to act on the world until they bond to what is left of a host who died in horrified fear - and so they were given their name. Though their shadow "skin" is completely black, they hold their host's shape and some aspects of their nature - elfin ears, orcish tusks, dragonborn scales or dwarvish eyes are all part of the body the fearling now controls, and thus part of the fearling.
