The Husks were the former bodies of [[Josiah Samuel Smith]], an alien survey sent to Earth by [[Light]] in [[DW]]: [[Ghost Light]]. | |||
==Appearance== | |||
Josiah did not appear humanoid in his original form and therefore began to evolve into the dominant species at the time: The Victorian Gentleman. This process appeared to take some time. There were two husks in the lower observatory of [[Gabriel Chase]]; one of these looked like a reptile, the other like an insect. Both wore clothing very similar to Josiah's. | |||
The third husk was created in the upper observatory after Josiah abandoned his interim state, in the manner of an insect, half-way through ''Ghost Light'', completing his evolution. This husk was exactly the same as Josiah's final appearance, except that it had flaky skin. | |||
==Characteristics== | |||
The Husks were free to move to a degree, the ones in the lower gallery endeavored to capture Ace but [[Nimrod (Ghost Light)|Nimrod]] fended them of with a lantern. All the husks, and Josiah's interim state just before complete evolution, were afraid of light, it is strongly implied this was because Josiah associated light with Light, his master. | |||
