A Deepwood Banshee, despite its name, is not truly a spirit. It appears as a gaunt man or woman clothed in leaves, bark and vines. It lures wayward travelers with a dreadful cry, like a child or adult in pain or peril. When the victims are in sight, it unleashes a trap of roots and vines which ensnare and strangle. The creature's best defense is also its most damaging attack: a whirlwind of razorleaves that spins about its person. If bested it will make deals, and Deepwood Banshees are so ancient and uncivilized that they know the deeper mysteries of nature and the beast. They bear human-like children which begin to transform into the creature they are at puberty. This change is timed to match that of humans, though a Deepwood Banshee has a much longer lifespan, akin to dragons.
