Homebrew Dullahan Species Details

As well as taking those who are destined to die soon, dullahans also hunt the spirits of those who have come back from the grave as undead. Some of them may see becoming undead as an accident or something out of their control, and perform the task for the sake of righteousness, while others may feel they are being wronged by undead even existing, and hunt them for vengeance. Even if a sword from a paladin would pass through a ghost and be useless, in the hands of a dullahan, any object or weapon can hurt or even kill a ghost.
