Hoozuki

The Soul Chasers who patrol the ash plains of The Underworld will tell you Hoozuki is a ghost who lost their way. They were part of an expedition that shattered upon entry, and when the call came to retreat, Hoozuki refused. They’d heard tales of Yuji’s tactical withdrawal and saw it not as strategy, but as failure. So they stayed. They try to apply Overworld rules to this lawless realm, bowing before combat and attempting to parley with mindless undead. Their rigid formality is so alien here that it often confuses their foes into a fatal hesitation. They fastidiously polish their bowler hat each cycle as the crimson sky glows, a bizarre ritual of defiance in a world that demands surrender.
