Hollow

Hollow are people whose souls were destroyed, leaving an empty body behind.^[1][2]

Usually, when a Sleeper or an Awakened perished in the Dream Realm, their soul is destroyed and the body dies with it. But if not, they become a Hollow. This is when their physical body still lives on even when their soul has died leaving just an empty husk of a body that still lives.^[3]

There are instances when a mundane human can become a Hollow outside of the Dream Realm. There is a very small chance of a powerful soul attack creating a Hollow. Beings capable of dealing with direct soul damage are very rare and almost never happen.^[4]

Only Awakened below the Master rank can become Hollow or Lost.^[5]
