Full Description
A traveler spirit has no real defined shape and thus makes them near impossible to notice. Some priests have an uncanny ability to detect one of these when they are entering into a lifeless body to take over as their new home. It is unusual to encounter one traveling from their realm to that of the living without some form of intervention. The resurrection of the dead is the most common intervention possible to bring and meet one of these foul beings.

Their realm is a tumult of chaos and anarchy with no real physical nature it is a swirling mass of floating spirits trapped between the lands of the living and on passing to their next realm. No sage knows where they originated, but there are things that live in this realm in between and feed off of those traveling to their next life. The sorrow filled spirits who torment themselves into getting lost in this voided realm are easy prey for these hungry beings. They fall upon them with malicious intent and will often fight a horde of their own for a simple morsel of the sweet spirited flesh.

While these are entities all to themself they can not exist in the physical and real world without the aid or help from an outside source. The most common vehicle for their transportation between the void of their home and the mortal realm is through Resurrection

Different Types of Travelers

The Trucco are tricksters and enjoy traveling to the realm of the flesh to wreak their jokes and mishaps on everyone they can. They are the most harmless of the three types of traveler spirits as they do not wish to harm anyone, even though they often do it isn’t with malicious intent. When in the void they are seen as small spindly creatures that are vivacious in their feastings, yet prefer to play with their prey before feeding. Once they traverse to the land of the living a common trait that is noticeable is the habit of constantly wringing their hands as if in anticipation.

The Sesso are an oddity, wanting both to bring pleasure and pain into their existence. They enjoy traveling to the realm of flesh more so than the other traveler spirits. They covet that which they do not have in their void. While at first they can be seen as harmless, and even desired, their true intent brings about the downfall and even death of those they choose as their playmates. When in the void they try to being comfort to their victims, setting them at ease before they strike for the final blow and feed. They are seen as sinuous forms of silky smoke that is pleasant to the eyes and mind. Once they traverse to the land of the flesh, they seek out others whom they can seduce and give pleasure. Once in the throes of their passion is when they strike with their true intent and feed on the body and soul of their victim, turning them into a husk and nothing. They have a noticeable habit of being very affectionate and seductive toward both sexes.

The Omicidio are the killers and murders of the travelers. They enjoy the realm of the flesh for its ability to bring them fresh blood and flesh. They will often kill for the sheer pleasure of watching the light disappear into the victim’s eyes. They are often mean spirited and quick to anger, not caring for their words or their actions. When in the void they are seen as a large muscled mass of anger and hate, often changing colors while feeding to show their pleasure or rage. Once they traverse to the land of the living a common trait that is noticeable is the habit of self mutilation. When not actively hunting down more victims, they can be found cutting themselves and enjoying with huge pleasure on their face. Many of the worlds most acknowledged serial killers and mass murderers have been found out to have been of the omicidio spirits.

Additional Information

Death is different among nearly all game settings. Please read this with the understanding that it may not fit your particular game setting and style, but is an alternative. When someone dies in the game of Hewdamia their spirit is sent to a void of space, the realm of the spirits for lack of a better term. This is where they await their return to the living via intervention, or where they travel to their next life if they are spiritually content.

Their soul drifts among the nothingness and awaits their destination. Now there are ‘things’ in this void. Spirit like beings who feed on these waiting souls. What happens next is purely another form of the circle of life.
