Vessels

Soul of Wyrm. Soul of Root. Heart of Void.
== General ==
Vessels are genderless semi-empty demigods infused with void that are found at an alarming quantity in the Abyss.
== Diet ==
Literally anything.
== Info ==
Vessels were created when the Pale King and the White Lady mated and threw their egg into the Abyss. Their reasoning for this was that they needed to create a perfect empty vessel to trap the Radiance in and save the kingdom of Hallownest from the infection. Once their eggs hatched, the immense amounts of offspring that were in the egg were infused with void. None were actually the pure vessel however and despite the Pale King's attempts, this project was a failure. Years later, vessels would emerge one by one from the Abyss (which was covered head to toe in Vessel corpses mind you). Most would become warriors, start families, gain emotions, and fight the Husks as their father intended.
Vessel growth is an odd enigma. Vessels age by gaining experience and through training. Once a baby vessel becomes a teen vessel, the teen vessel may one day spin a cocoon of void around itself and emerge as an adult vessel. There are no more stages of life recorded after this however and the vessel lives the rest of its life as an adult - seemingly for infinity.
When killed, Vessels with a strong will become Shades - essentially Essence Ghosts but made of void that are able to interact with the living world.
== Abilities ==
Vessels can manipulate both soul and void if their powers are tuned properly. Some vessels can even turn into their shades on their will - as seen with Blue and Paran. It should be noted that all vessels are weak to acid at some capacity.
== Habitat ==
Every vessel emerged from the Abyss - but where they go after their emergence is entirely up to them.
== Trivia ==
Despite the fact that Vessels are notoriously genderless, they can apparently reproduce - as seen in the case of Riot and Grothnar.
