This humanoid intelligent being is a result of potent Ether matter corruption in the Hollow, exhibiting both humanoid traits and remnants of its former clothing and combat style. It is likely that it was once a gang member or raider living in the Hollow.
The creature's physical characteristics indicate its past as a long-range weapon specialist. Despite losing its free will and life due to Etherealization, it retains its instincts and habits for long-range combat. Its corrupted form enables it to launch projectiles, attacking enemies from a distance. The Ether corruption has enhanced its shooting abilities and projectile firepower. (For example, these creatures may fire sharp Ether Crystals or mixed explosives.)
