Weepers are a known and feared phenomena of the Weeping Hollow. They can sometimes be heard in the form of whimpers, sobs, screams, and moans. They are invisible to most, though some cityspeakers claim to be able to see them - descriptions of their physical form vary.

Weepers form from the repressed trauma of those passing through the Hollow. They then search for a new host in order to resolve the trauma. Once a host has been found, the weeper will follow the individual wherever they go. The weeper burdens the host with the very repressed emotions it manifested from, and the fragmented memories will invade their mind in the form of waking thought and dreams.

The intrusive memories and emotions will persist in the host as long the individual actively resists them. When the experience is properly processed, the weeper disappears.

The source of the weeper, however, may produce more weepers if they are unable to process the trauma.
