Knoverfen

The Mysterious Figure

Sailors that pass the island of the Bone Hills claim it is haunted by a lone figure pale as the hills, with antlers like a deer.  He is spotted along the shore looking over the water, longingly toward the mainland.  Rumors state that this figure is Knoverfen, the last immortal being of the island.  Sailors never venture onto the island in fear of being turned to bone by him.  He is blamed for being the creator of the carvers.  Supposedly he steals the hearts of innocent people and replaces them with bone, which morphs the victim into a human heart craving monster.  

Origins

Knoverfen is seen as a figure of decay, as he was the cause of the Death of the Hills, the event that turned the Living Hills into the Bone Hills and killed all of the Hills' inhabitants.  He effectively ended an era of peace and near immortality within the Living Hills when he managed to murder another man and bury him within the Hills.  Knoverfen, along with the Hills became bone.  He has since been the only inhabitant of the island of the Bone Hills; he has never left.

Appearance

Knoverfen is made almost entirely of bone.  When he first became tainted by the Bone Hills, jagged bones spiked out from his temples.  No matter how much time passes, they are always freshly wet with his blood.  He has two scars that run vertically along his eyes, these are the only remaining portions of living flesh on the outside of his body.  Their origin is unknown, and they date back to his childhood years.  The eyes of Knoverfen glow white, they constantly relive the sight of his kill.  His body is covered in bits of bone that once pierced through his skin, but he has since broken them off, leaving only stumps.
