Hag

Malevolent crones who lurk at the edges of civilisation, hags use their deceptive, magical abilities to prey upon humanoids, manipulating and corrupting them. Hags gather together in covens for greater power, craft unique magical items known as hag eyes, and are known to replace infant humanoids with their own offspring - these children are changelings who have the potential to become hags themselves.

Covens

Hags are dangerous enough on their own, but when they gather in threes to form covens, they grow much more powerful.

Haters of Humanity

Hags loathe all humanoid races, but not equally - the brunt of their wrath is levelled against humans. Hags prey on human society the most, adding human flesh to their cauldron and snatching newborn children before replacing the babes with their own progeny as changelings.

Genetics and Reproduction

That no known male hags exist has also puzzled scholars, but perhaps this is but another way in which hags mock society - by presenting themselves as awful stereotypes of elderly women.

Common Myths and Legends

Some say hags arose from fey that became twisted by their inner selfishness. Others believe they possess no true form or body of their own, but instead manifest from society’s fear of ageing.
