Homebrew Dullahan Species Details

No one knows where the Dullahans came from, some say they are from the shadowfell, some believe they are spirits of the dead in search of vengeance. But what is known is that they are terrifying creatures, that search the material plane for restless souls. It is not known what they do to such souls, but some say they consume the souls for power, others say they can purify these souls and give them rest, while others, more fearful believe they don't seek restless souls, they seek targets, people that they kill and take their souls to torment for all eternity. But the Tieflings, who also suffer prejudices, tend to sympathize with the Dullahans, and for some weird reason, the Halflings and the Gnomes seem to not mind the rumors, and fears of the other races. But there is one rule of the Dullahan that every race knows, and no matter how friendly someone may be with a Dullahan, they will cower in fear when the head of a Dullahan is stolen, for anyone and anything that stands between them and their heads will perish, and the thief will suffer a death worse than the curse of a god.
