Mousefolk (Mousling)

Overview

Spritely and adorable swamp dwellers, mouslings are resilient beastfolk who make their homes in the marsh tree-tops. They are elusive and genuinely hard to spot in their own nesting grounds, a survival instinct they developed to hide from predators who find them delicious. When they do choose to be seen, they are genuinely kind, offering their help to any who have lost their way in the swamp. However, should a mousling find their life to be in danger, they become a force to be reckoned with; dark beasts that would turn even the most courageous of knights on their heels.
Loa's Name - Rudra, location unknown.
