The Forgotten
Most creatures of the Dark Forest are a product of their spark. These sparks shape their form and connect them to both the Salamanderflame and the Salamander.
But one creature in the Dark Forest has no spark at all. This is the Forgotten.
No one remembers who the Forgotten used to be. It takes the form of a burned out husk of a human. From the front, it has the correct silhouette, but is horribly charred. No eyes gaze out from its form, though it doesn't seem bothered by this. Ash constantly flakes from the creature, though it never reduces in mass. Those who see it from behind notice that the entire span of its back has been burned away.
It doesn't seem hostile towards anyone, but even the largest of the Dark Forest guardians seem to avoid it on instinct. None know why.
