In this photo you can see him clearly, but in the game you can't and because this is his name. This photo by the way, isn't real it's just edited because you cannot crucifix Void he's like Jack and Timothy.
Void will help you not to die if you stay behind when you're playing with your friends. You have to know that he also do damage; but his jumpscare isn't so scary.
Yes, Void can also save you from a bug like if the room hasn't loaded yet, you'll fall into the void and he will save you. So, don't worry much about him! Stay close together with your friend!
