Text

While the number of trinkets and bargains a hag personally acquires means that her powers will be unique compared to that of her sisters, hags as a whole can still be divided into three sub-categories.

⁠Night Hags: Named as such for their ability to haunt a mortal's dreams, slowly devouring vital essence until the victim's soul can be trapped into the hag's soul bag. They are known for being petty, selfish braggarts.

⁠Sea Hags: Known for devouring their victims whole, sea hags can terrorise and kill with a single look. They reek of fish and are incapable of making a proper cup of tea.

⁠Green Hags: They are beautiful. They are powerful. Speak not a word against them.

Notes

• According to the Forgotten Realms lore there are more then three subspecies of ⁠Hags in Faerûn.
