Black Hollow

O
Ostalius

Black Hollow is cursed, sealed within a living fog that traps all who enter—no one leaves. Roads vanish, trees twist, and time frays. At the hamlet’s heart stands a rotting orphanage, echoing with phantom laughter and footsteps in empty halls. Shadows move on their own. The longer you stay, the more the fog gets inside you—changing your thoughts, your memories. In Black Hollow, escape isn’t just unlikely—it’s forgotten.

appearance
A 34-year-old male human with short brown hair and brown eyes, standing at 6'3" and weighing 210 lbs. He wears rugged, practical clothing suited for hunting and survival, often adorned with a bracelet that belonged to his deceased wife, Isabella.
personality
Nickolus is persistent in his pursuits, cautious in his actions, and often secluded due to the haunting memories of his past. He is driven by a desire to investigate the darkness that surrounds him and to push back against it, even as he grapples with his own guilt and the fear he instills in others.
backstory
Nickolus took on small odd jobs until he stumbled into an illusionary forest where he encountered his first creature of darkness. After swiftly killing it with an arrow, he felt an overwhelming sense of purpose and began taking requests from townsfolk to help with creature sightings. As he honed his skills in strength, dexterity, and knowledge, he earned the nickname 'Darkhood.' He married Isabella, but his relentless hunt for darkness led to tragedy when a vampire set a trap that caused the townsfolk, including Isabella, to fall into a deep sleep. Nickolus watched helplessly as Isabella died in his arms, and the souls of the townsfolk became twisted and malicious, haunting him with whispers and visions, especially Isabella's. Now feared as a harbinger of death, he seeks redemption and a way to push back the darkness that haunts him.
