The Beheaded

"Well, hello, Mr. Prisoner, Sir!"

- Guillain

The Beheaded is a prisoner and the protagonist of the Dead Cells universe. He is some kind of mucus, bubble grass-like with a crystal inside that probably maintains its form. He has the ability to possess empty bodies to control freely as his will. He stays in a body most of the time and can only be out using the power of the Homunculus Rune (or in some cinematic cut-scenes). Nothing is known about his past or background story, but seems that others prisoners know him.

Story
Nothing is known about the Prisoner other than he seems to have the ability to possess others headless bodies, He starts in the Prisoner's Quarters possessing a body and starting to move around.

Personality
The Prisoner seems to have a bit of a mean-streak. He kicks bodies around and frequently snarks at other prisoner's fates. Many other prisoners seem to be afraid of him. Despite this, he has a "nice" side, judging by his reaction to some of the letters and papers found throughout the game. He often reacts in silly ways to various situations.
