Spooklets

Spooklets - a pair of tiny, imp-like children of shadow, one donning a skeletal guise and the other a gourd-headed mask. The smaller one, Skidlet, has a body of wiry black shadow marked with chalk-white bone patterns, its mask resembling a crude skull with hollow, glowing eye sockets that flicker between joy and menace. The larger, Pumpling, is rounder and more grounded, with a carved pumpkin head that drips faintly glowing ectoplasm from its jagged grin. Together, they move as one—Skidlet often perched atop Pumpling’s head, swaying to invisible music. Their little cape and gloves are stitched from soul-fabric, glowing faintly under the moonlight.
