description: The life of a Hellknight is bloody, brutal, and often short. Many who
  perish in service to a Hellknight order are glad to rest after having served their
  masters so faithfully, but others seek to continue their work even in death. When
  a Hellknight is decapitated, the ghostly undead known as a hellcrown is an occasional
  result. Consumed by the desire to bring about order by inflicting cruelty, hellcrowns
  haunt battlefields and abandoned castles, slaying all they encounter. A strange
  fusion of spirit and steel, a hellcrown has no corporeal form by itself, but instead
  inhabits the helmet it so proudly wore in life. Dangling from the helmet like a
  shroud is a shadow of the former Hellknight's spine, adding to the creature's terrifyingly
  gruesome appearance. Hellknights regard hellcrowns with a mixture of disgust and
  respect, considering the individuals who transform into these floating undead to
  have been resolute in purpose but weak in body.
