By [img src link]

The Accursed Ones bear a physical manifestation of their chaotic lineage, reflecting the dark magic that brought them into existence. Ranging in height from 4 to 8 feet, and weighing between 60 to 300 pounds, their appearance is a testament to the diverse nature of the curses that shaped them.

Eyes that perpetually radiate an intense black gaze contrast with pupils that can adopt any color imaginable, adding an otherworldly quality to their presence. Their skin, often tinted in hues of black or crimson red, further emphasizes their supernatural origin.

Many Accursed Ones boast horns of varying shapes, reaching up to 5 inches in height, and tails that twist and coil in unique patterns. These physical attributes, along with a distinctive mark on their bodies, symbolize the dark magic that binds their existence. The mark, varying in size, serves as a reminder of their origin, resembling the nature of the curse and the individual who played a role in their creation.
