There really isn't much info on them.

However, note:
>they rop the tattered set
>they are scared of fire
>the one you posted seems to have the darksign on it's left shoulder

I'd hazard a guess at them having been pyromancers of the great swamp at some point.

>them having been pyromancers

Why do they fear fire then?

they walk like dragon's so i'd bet they are aldia's failed experiments who prefer the calm dark

It probably had something to do with how they ended up looking like that.

Or you know, not.
I'm pulling shit out of my ass man.

Pussy bitches that didn't know bout my torch.

jazz dancers horribly corrupted by, dare i say it, the scholar of the first sin

Maybe pyromancy had something to do with the transformation, or it reminds them of their previous lives?

They're mutated Hollows. You can see they have the darksign on their shoulder, just like the player character.
