"Oh, hello there. I will stay behind, to gaze at the sun. The sun is a wondrous body. Like a magnificent father! If only I could be so grossly incandescent!"
— Solaire of Astora
Hollowing Ones first appeared when a lord of flame denied the coming dark. The Dark struck back, marking many living with the Darksign upon death, reanimating after a time. Throughout the history of the plane of souls, there has been a cycle that starts and ends with a hollowing one who chooses to link the Firelink Shines or leave them unlinked. The end of the cycle is only a time of dark until a new hollowing one takes up the task of linking.
Creating A Hollowing One
"Hollowing One" is an acquired template that can be added to any living corporeal Giant, Humanoid, or Monstrous Humanoid with a soul, and Intelligence of 3 or higher.
A hollowing one has all the base creature’s statistics and special abilities except as noted here, with the exception of humans who lose all racial abilities.
Size and Type
The creature’s type changes to deathless(Darksign). Do not recalculate base attack bonus, saves, or skill points. Size is unchanged.
Hit Dice
Unlike other deathless HD are unchanged, New racial HD are D8
Special Qualities
A Hollowing One has all the special qualities of the base creature and gains the following special qualities.
Darksign(Su): Hollowing Ones are deathless on all accounts. Additionally, they gain none of the Deathless Immunities. They also retain their constitution score in their semblance of undeath. They are still destroyed upon reaching 0hp, see below. They additionally gain Turn Resistance equal to their current sanity (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/variant/campaigns/sanity.htm). If a Hollowing One reconstitutes with 0 sanity they become a Hollow.
Hollows become mindless and intelligence becomes a nonability. Additionally, they lose the ability to use their Humanity ability.
Darksign is a curse with caster level 30 and prevents all forms of life restoration magic from working, rendering them immune to raise dead, reincarnation, resurrection and even true resurrection. Once the sign is removed only True Resurrection or better can be used for the resurrection. Cremation in the flames of an active Firelink Bonfire cleanses the curse of Darksign.
Hollowing ones are not at risk of death from massive damage, but when reduced to 0 hit points or less, it is immediately destroyed, falling to the ground and decomposing over the course of a week to ash.
Cannot heal damage on its own if it has no Intelligence score, although it can be healed. Positive energy (such as a cure spell) can heal hollowing creatures. The fast healing special quality works regardless of the creature’s Intelligence score.
Bonfire Reconstitution (Su): Upon being destroyed and undergoing the week-long process of smoldering to ash the Hollowing One reconstitutes at the last Firelink Bonfire they rested at after 1 week per mile from the shrine. If the last Firelink Bonfire is not kindled or has not been kindled to your level tier then you instead travel to the nearest kindled Firelink Bonfire of your tier.
Coming back from the dead is an ordeal. The Hollowing One loses 15 sanity when it is reconstituted, fear resistances cannot not reduce this damage. Upon reconstituting all abilities expended and time must be spent recovering to restore them as per normal rest requirements.
A reconstituted hollowing one has a number of hit points equal to its current Hit Dice. Any ability scores damaged to 0 are raised to 1. Normal poison and normal disease are cured in the process of raising the subject, but magical diseases and curses are not undone. While the reconstitution closes mortal wounds and repairs lethal damage of most kinds, the body of the Hollowing One must be whole. Otherwise, missing parts are still missing when they are brought back to life. None of their equipment or possessions are affected in any way by this spell.
A creature who has been killed by a death effect can’t be raised by this ability. Additionally, if the Hollowing One is cremated they do not reconstitute.
Darkvision 60ft: If the base creature does not already have darkvision or their darkvision is less then 60ft they gain darkvision 60t. If they have darkvision of 60ft or better there is no change.
Soul Currency(Su): The hollowing one gains Soul Treasury as a bonus feat.
Humanity(Su): The Hollowing One may expend 500 Souls or Mythos Points per HD they have to recover a semblance of humanity. This vestige allows them to be treated in all ways as a living being as their withered forms take on the supple flesh they bore in life. Upon reconstitution, this semblance is lost and they return to their wither true forms, but your humanity prevents, sanity, level loss and ability score loss

Estus Flasks
The user has a limited amount of Estus they can imbue into flasks while resting at a bonfire. They can infuse 3+1/2 character level charges into any combination of estus flasks with an hour of meditation. The amount of estus allotted to a flask is set until you mediate again to reallocate the charges. Each time you rest for at least 4 hours at a Firelink Bonfire their flasks recover all allotted charges. By spending 10 minutes and 500 souls the hollowing one can infuse a new charge into a flask, to replace a used charge.
The listed Estus Flasks are the exceptional versions. By infusing the flask with mythos points, or an equal amount of souls, enough to purchase a mythos of the next mythos tier you may increase a flask to that tier. You must have Craft Estus Flask and the ability to purchase mythos of the tier you are trying to make the flask. The process of upgrading takes 8 hours and rare ingredients worth the mythos point cost. An estus flask for a medium person weighs 2 lb., is 5 inches tall and 2 inches in diameter, and are made of a special type of stone called estus. The different flasks are created by treating the normally moss colored stone with magical processes.
