The Hag

In moments of desperation, or maybe in the search for power, you made a pact with a magical and very powerful creature, known as The Hag. This elemental being dates from the early legends, and has always been present over history, but curiously, has never showed itself in its natural form. Only a few brave adventurers, or power maniacs, have really seen its real form, and therefore, obtained a greater power.

The Hag manifests itself in many forms, usually seen as an old lady, or maybe a handsome man, in order to trick people in making enternal pacts with it. People empowered by The Hag dont't tend to evil, but somehow respond to the will of their patron. This being is very picky, and personally choses whom to share it's power with. That means it is very hard to encounter anyone linked with The Hag, and those who are, are treated like gods, or like demons.

 Some claim to have seen haggeous creatures in several swamps. It is not known if these sightings are minor hags, scouting for the greater one, or actually The Hag.
