Homebrew Mothman Species Details
A Mothman is a strange creature that most people in the world are completely unaware of. The few people who have seen or know of Mothmen are seen as insane. The actual Mothmen themselves, however, know that they are real and do not believe that each other are insane (fancy that). These shadowy fliers are roguish beings; some like to cause chaos by stealing items in the night and stalking the random people to insanity, while others solve problems anonymously.
