Sweet Hag

Creature 4 — hag, humanoid

Sweet hags use bright colors, pleasant visages, and sugary treats to draw in children and the young at heart. Their favorite prey is impoverished youngsters who are unlikely to be missed—sweet hags offer them food and a veneer of kindness before devouring the hapless child. Sweet hags also enchant their food to magically charm others, often using these bespelled servitors to handle all of their busywork. Though they present a lovely and generous face to the world, they turn vicious when insulted
