Warded Children

The Warded Children are group of mostly young people (not technically children) that live outside the towns of Hollow County, mostly in the forests, that revel in killing demons, occasionally eating their meat, and have developed their own subculture while generally stealing supplies from the townsfolk to support themselves.

Subgroups
