Desiderari

undefined: A desiderari is a assistant headmate characterized by their unique role as the helper of headmates entering dormancy or on the verge of alter death. They are also known for being the guardians of the internal world's graveyards, shrines, and other death-related structures, objects, and locations. A desiderari's presence can also serve as a beacon of hope for alters facing dormancy. It reminds them that while they may temporarily enter a state of dormancy, it is not the end, but rather a part of the ongoing process of healing. Desiderari often present themselves in a spectral appearance, cloaked in darkness and holding a symbolic scythe.

Etymology
The term desiderari comes from the Latin word 'desiderium', meaning longing or desire.
