Description
A chupacabra is a savage creature almost akin to a primal vampire. Their 4 to 6-foot stature may not seem so frightening but their lust is the stuff of nightmares, and they lust for only one thing; blood. When standing on their hind legs these creatures can be up to 7 or 8 feet tall, chupacabras have an almost devilish appearance, with three toes, almost black patchy skin, large, long, spiked quills or spines along their backs, a long, forked tongue, giant, red, oval eyes, and a fearsome set of fangs, each as long as a human hand. The fangs are the beast's apparatus through which a creature's blood is siphoned.
Exactly how the chupacabra came to be is unknown, however, there are multiple theories. One theory is they are descended from a species from the Underdark. Another is that they are from another plane of existence, here to reap the spoils of blood. The most popular theory is that they're the creation of a made wizard or vampire, and they could no longer be controlled by their creator not monitoring their breeding.
