The Dullahan is a fearsome and supernatural entity, a headless rider clad in dark and ominous armor, mounted atop a black horse. Carrying a large sword with deadly precision, the Dullahan’s reputation as a bringer of vengeance precedes it, as it is sent by gods or powerful wizards to exact retribution upon those who have incurred their wrath.

Despite the absence of a head, the Dullahan carries its severed cranium on the pommel of its saddle—a grim reminder of its spectral nature and the eerie aura that surrounds it. Its black steed moves with unnatural swiftness, bearing the Dullahan across the land to pursue its targets and fulfill its grim duty as a harbinger of doom.

As a relentless pursuer, the Dullahan’s determination and resolve are unmatched, driven by an unquenchable thirst for revenge against those who have wronged it or caused its demise. Its undead nature imbues it with a resilience that transcends mortal limitations, allowing it to rise from the grave once to seek retribution against its killer with unwavering purpose.
