Kaelen, The Hollowed – Wraith of Possession

Monster Type: Undead Wraith

Haunt the battle lines of your campaign with Kaelen, the Hollowed. This hand-selected artifact captures a chilling narrative moment: a heavily armored skeletal guardsman puppeted by a glowing, crowned wraith that clings to his shoulders like a malevolent specter. Merging solid, weathered steel with ethereal, flowing horror, this miniature brings a premium and deeply unsettling presence to your tabletop layout.

Highlight

For Keepers seeking a monster that visually communicates the terrifying nature of mind and body control, this artifact delivers an extraordinary painting and table experience. The stark duality between the tattered chainmail, dented plate armor, and the smooth, spectral tendrils of the possessing spirit provides a magnificent canvas for contrasting metallic weathering with advanced glowing effects.

Encounter Insight

This artifact serves beautifully as a unique elite monster or a tragic mid-tier boss. In combat encounters, use this entity to surprise your players—as the physical skeletal vessel takes damage and breaks apart, the possessing wraith can detach to attack their minds directly, forcing the party to fight a desperate, two-phase battle of survival.

Tabletop Lore

A terrifying entity whose rage was stirred deep within the desecration of Limlight’s graveyard, the wraith has begun to systematically possess guardsmen and soldiers throughout the village. Adding to the heavy list of threats bearing down on the few defenders that remain in the settlement, each victim it claims is used to their full, agonizing extent. The spirit pilots these stolen bodies ruthlessly, driving them forward until legs or arms have become completely shattered and unusable—unbothered by the spears piercing their hearts until a blade finally severs the head from the spine.
