Homebrew Bog Hag Species Details

Bog Hags steal and physically wear the skin of their victims to disguise themselves. Bog Hags are able to physically wear the skin of the recently deceased (if it isn't too damaged). This skin will eventually rot off of you after a week, showing your true self. This effect can be negated if the spell gentle repose is used. They are deceitful and will often try to hide their true self. Their true self is a scaly dark green female humanoid with claws and sharp teeth. They are known for living in bodies of water like: swamps, bogs, marshes, and fens. They are amphibious and usually ambush and drown their unsuspecting victims using their claws.
