What happened to the other three backers, you ask? Well, that’s a good question. There were originally ten backers for this tier, but only seven backers provided details for characters. One of the Kickstarter backer rewards was to create a dream boss that the player would be able to fight. But today, we’re going to look at one specific group of backer characters: the dream warriors.
Hence why we get characters like this Guts knockoff, created by David Waldie and Kcin, created by Nick. The ghosts in Hollow Knight might seem pretty random, but that’s because most of them were actually characters designed by Kickstarter backers. Does the ghost constitute an actual conscious being? Is being a ghost better than not existing at all? Can they use their ghostly powers to shoot lightning out of the sky? Now this raises a slew of ethical questions about whether dream nailing a ghost is humane or not. All of these ghosts can be struck with the Dream Nail in exchange for essence. And then there’s Marissa, the butterfly who can be heard singing in the City of Tears. There’s Millybug who died selling cookies, a dangerous profession indeed. There’s the gravedigger who died after falling into a grave.
Throughout Hallownest are numerous ghosts, remnant memories of travelers long gone. The main character from Hollow Knight is really good at killing things: Old men, newborn babies, and yes, even people who are already dead.
