Skull Kids—or stalkids—are a race of Small undead-humanoids that sparsely inhabit haunted woodlands and marshes, usually in relative isolation. They live as undead children for centuries, and rarely have maturity or understanding akin to adults. Living carefree lives, they typically pass year after year playing games, tricks, or instruments.

Character details
Alignment. Skull kids follow no rules and no laws, and steal from others for fun. They have a very strong tendency towards chaos, and lean closer to evil than good.
Age. Created from cursed children, skull kids are "created" at the apparent age at which they will die. Although a skull kid doesn't age, one will rarely if ever live to see 300 years.
Names. With no recollection of their former lives, skull kids almost never remember their original names. Many even go simply by the name "skull kid" because that is what living creatures call them. The few skull kids who choose a proper name for themselves tend to choose something silly or temporary, ranging anywhere from "Moonglow" to "She Who Shall Not Be Named."
