Calawhe
Basic Information
Anatomy
Animated by loneliness, the embittered spirit binds itself to the material world in a body made of bits and oddments of a lost childhood—wooden blocks, scraps of blankets, ratty dolls, buttons, carved trinkets, and glass marbles trying to resemble the skeleton of the child.
Behaviour
Calawhes most frequently lurk in old infirmaries, orphanages, and other such institutions where children were forgotten, and they lay dormant for decades in hopes that they might one day find a playmate to ease their eternal loneliness.
When they sense the living, calawhes attempt to lure them into their clutches by calling out to them using the voice of a small child. Though calawhes intend only to play with those they encounter, they drain the breath and voice from living creatures as their dark impulses take over.
