Skingryft (skɪnɡrɪft)

Written by loopywolf

The skingryft is a creature with no skin of its own, that steals and wears the skin of others, adopting their identity. In its true form, the skingryft has the look of a beast with its skin flayed off, and is very strong and agile. In human form, they are indistinguishable from the victim they stole the skin from, except when the skin becomes damaged for it cannot heal.  

Danger

Detection

  • Skingryfts are apparent as the monsters that they are when they do not have access to mortal skin.
  • When hiding as humans their skin will not heal properly. Therefore Skingryfts will accumulate odd cuts and bruises.
 

Abilities

  • Allthough not as fast and strong as other monsters, Skingryfts can be a fericous threat without skin - especially in groups.
  • They learn all of the memories of their host.
A full coven of Skingryfts (five) can open up a portal
