A deadly disease spawned by an ancient demon or elder god of hunger, it infects the body and spirit of its victims, turning them into near mindless, savage, and flesh eating hordes. Those who survive an attack are at risk of infection with the disease itself, which will transform the victim into a savage cannibal within days if not treated. Few sages and healers know the cure for this plague, as it requires a mixture of medicine and mysticism. Instinct: to Consume

• Devour and spread disease
• Infect survivors
• Swarm and overwhelm

Bedraggled beauties lost in the wilderness, desperately in need of rescue and protection are usually just that, women in need. Sometimes... they are horrible creatures lurking in glamoured disguise. Beguilers they, who lust for the true vigor and beauty of youth; who lure hapless adventurers back to dank lairs, to be repeatedly and tortuously used as breeding stock, or to become a meal. Revealed in their true forms, hags appear as grotesquely twisted crones, who gleefully corrupt and manipulate. They decorate their magically hidden caves with bubbling cauldrons, moldering tomes, jars of rare reagents, bones of former lovers, and lost artifacts. They know too much about you, what drives you, and what lies ahead in your future. They occasionally take coven with their sisters to cast dark rituals and meddle in mortal affairs. Instinct: to breed and collect

• Beguile and tempt through illusions and divination
• Foretell the fortunes of others
• Brew poisons and potions
• Curse and hex those who threaten with injury
