Songwraith

The Songwraith is a type of hobgoblin that feeds on the emotional energy of its victims.

Overview
"Come with me, love me, and we can be together forever… [eerie, enchanting music]"

A fairly new phenomenon within the Hedge, these creatures always appear vague from a distance. On a closer look, they will take on the visage of a loved one, using this appearance and their hypnotic song to seduce the victim. The Songwraith is difficult to attack, as it is, in truth, composed of shadow. Magic and fire have been known to have an effect.

Fae Aspects
• Bewitching Melody: When a Songwraith has chosen her victim, she begins to sing. The target must resist by rolling his Resolve + Composure versus the Songwraith’s Presence + Expression. If the roll fails, this song begins to sap the victim’s Glamour at a rate of one per Turn. The victim may reroll once per every three turns. Once the victim’s Glamour is drained, the song then drains their Health points at the same rate as it did their Glamour, until the victim finally dies.

• Fleshly Guise: The Songwraith is capable of taking on a specific form for an extended period of time in order to draw out the deception. During this time, it has a corporeal form, and will appear to eat, converse, and carry out the same sort of activities as any normal changeling. When engaging in such long-term hunting, it will appear as a changeling of the Fairest kith.
