Nameless One

A Nameless One is a rare Ishiken that has become tainted but is cleansed of their taint by the Void, although it is not known why. Once the Void has changed them, they are stripped of their names and are considered less than human. Nameless Ones do not often interact with the world around them and have few memories of themselves or others after becoming Nameless. When the Void cleanses them they also suffer a large number of physical deformities including missing eyes, mouths, ears or limbs and often are accompanied by a ghostly aura. This is attributed to the conflict between the Void and the Taint within their body. They have a hatred of all Shadowlands creatures and will attack Tainted creatures mercilessly. There have only been nine recorded Nameless Ones in the last eleven centuries with the most notable being Isawa Ujina in the 12th century.
