Boggies are a type of Chimera associated with River Hags and dangerous waterways.
Overview[]
Boggies are no relation to boggans, nor are they a new kith. They are, instead, a junior-grade version of river hags and the like. Not exactly sentient and not exactly anything else, boggies flock to rivers, lakes, and streams that either are or are likely to become haunted by river hags. Boggies, so named because of their tendency to cluster in marshy, boggy areas, look like roughly formed humanoids with webbed, grasping paws. Some have stubby claws and some do not; some have lamprey-like sucker mouths and some have maws full of teeth. They range in color from dull brown to sickly greenish-yellow, and most are mottled in one diseased pattern or other. They don't generally speak, though they do make soft, child-like noises that hover on the edge of comprehension. Changelings that make the mistake of trying to listen too closely find themselves in the boggie's clutches and hauled to a reedy and dank death down among the weeds.
