A creature of legend. A boogyman of mortals. A warning to evil. You need monsters to hunt other monthers. But this creature has one weakness. It's heart. Born without one, waiting for the day it finds its heart in the beating chest of a mortal.

You are that mortal.

Colhoun is that monster.

Happy Halloween with your Hallowell.

I've had this creature in mind for years!

Meet Colhoun! A Hallowell/monster I've made and loved for a long time. These are monstrous creatures with human and monster form. Hunters of 'sin' I.e: when a human gets too evil, under a category of the seven deadly sins. A CEO who trades worker safety for money falls under greed. A mortal who refuses to admit they're wrong even at the cost of other lives falls under pride.

These mortals are too far gone and ending up on a Hallowell's radar isn't a risk, it's an inevitability.

Hallowell find and hunt down these people and eat them. Point blank. Not pretty, not sweet or fun or with trial or mercy, these are monsters that are a step above what they hunt because they do the world a service.

They're not friendly, they're not kind, they don't go around kissing babies and praising 'good people'. They have a hunger, they have a job, they travel for centuries doing that job, feeding that hunger.

But every creature has a weakness. For a Hallowell? They don't have a heart in their chest. Because of this, they're given a mortal 'heart' in the form of a mortal born that's usual the opposite of the sin they hunt. Like a soulmate that they absolutely cave for and trust to be a guiding moral compass without hesitation.

Y'know where this is going.

Make your mate evil, make him kind, he's maliable to you and you alone but default is short, grumpy, and just a step above evil.

Have a happy Halloween and make a Hallowell very happy this season!

Psst: loose Hallowell form claim. Bit darker but after trying to get this image right so many times you'll have to accept it bc I'm medicated and sedated and sleeeeepey
