Witherkin are a sapient species of Netheria in Imperialism of Illagers.
Biology[]
Witherkin are classified as Psychozoa, a group soul energy-powered organisms that lacks any inner organs besides the skeleton.
Witherkin are a tall humanoid with entirely black skin and glowing white eyes. They stand at a towering 2.3m tall.
New Witherkin can be born randomly emerging from soul sand and soil if enough souls are contained in those blocks. Witherkin decay as they age, eventually becoming fully skeletal at the age of 50, although some still retain their skin. In the present day most witherkin decay into skeletons almost immediately after birth due to unknown reasons.
Anatomy[]
The Witherkin's anatomy is nearly identical to the pigmen, however they lack snouts and earlobes.
History[]
Centuries ago, the Witherkin willingly joined Herobrine in his legion and wreak havoc across Inamortia. After his defeat, they were forced back to their homeland of the Soul Valley.
Society[]
Although powerful and brutish, the Witherkin are the least intelligent of the Netherian races and are practically stuck at stone age. The best weapons they have are the remaining of ancient weapons and simple blackstone swords. They are also forced to live in ruined fortresses and are quite incapable of rebuilding it. Many Witherkin form groups with the strongest member as their leader (usually those with an ancient weapon).
