Neutral evil characters be like, "yeah my grandma's a hag. I mean she's evil but she's not a dick about it, asks for a tithing of like, three children to be her apprentices every generation but we haven't had a single complication with childbirth and no kids in the village have starved to death since she started living in the swamp down the road."

@samiamrg7 Жыл бұрын
Legit, though, that’s a pretty sweet deal for a pre-modern society. Birth complications and childhood starvation were major killers in the past. Now I just imagine the little village starts to grow and thrive from all the extra people who aren’t dying, and so the Hag comes back and asks for more children per generation. The town still grows until it is a major city, and the hag has kept increasing her toll over time until she is asking for a horrifically hig number of sacrifices to “protect” such a large metropolis. Theoretically, more people are still being saved than sacrificed, but nonetheless the raw number has gotten too big to ignore. Meanwhile, the Hag has amassed a large coven of daughter hags by replacing all the sacrificed children with her own changeling spawn. She now has a stranglehold over the city like some freakish mob boss.

We fought a night hag coven a couple sessions ago. Due to a couple botched stealth checks, our bard, while invisible, panicked and ran inside the mill that was their lair when one opened the door. Realizing he was trapped inside, he panicked again and dumped out his bag of caltrops onto the stairs to slow her down as he tried to figure out how to escape. Unfortunately for him, she managed to make her save coming up the stairs and wasn't slowed down any. Panicking again, he decided to use thunder wave to slow her down and break a window in the same action. This time she failed her dexterity save and took the full force of the spell, knocking her down the stairs. Along with the caltrops he threw down just before. Watching this I excitedly asked if she made her dex save against the caltrops. Nat 1. I also took this moment to point out that normally caltrops deal 1 damage, and 1+1d4 usually represented how many you stepped on. Our bard, as if struck by the gods of inspiration, excitedly asked if he could roll to see how many of the caltrops hit her as they were flung back by the thunder wave. The DM thought about it and nodded, thinking it was reasonable. She asked how many he threw down, and we all realized he didn't specify. I looked at the item table and mentioned that a whole bag of caltrops was about 100. Everyone's eyes lit up as we realized what was brewing. He asked if he could roll a D100 to determine the number of hits. Our DM, will a look of terror at what she agreed to, nodded. He rolled a 74. 74+2d8 damage in a single hit. And that's how our party accidentally discovered the thunder wave shotgun and nearly one shot a night hag.

We just faced forest grandma ( green hag) in the game I play in Everyone laughed at Galven ( my shadow sorccerer pure white tiefling ) when he said ' ehh aunt jena told us stories of forest grandmothers , they take the bad kids that go to far into the woods , and then the ehhh kids are never seen " Then we found the skull of the kid we were looking for in her magic soup, where she was magic a magic staff with his soul

I think a good interpretation of their "corruption" is that they do the *most* fucked up things they can and display it publicly, but also make it known that they can offer help to anybody who truly needs it. But then turns out the material components for her not-poor spell was 40 burning babies, because what'd you expect getting help from granny kid-eater? Then she'd magically haunt your dreams with the sounds and sights of burning flesh and cries of utter agony, manipulating you into thinking it was all your fault, and she did all that to fuck with you. Fun warlock patrons.

ive been trying to make a "witch" class based on hag magic they are basically full casters that max out at 5th level spell slots but get a lot of spell slots and can only reach higher level spells through "coven spells" which require them to enter a coven with at least 2 other casters. when casting in this way the witch calls upon the other two to use their reaction to add spell levels onto a spell being cast. the idea of it is to be a class that the more casters there are in the party the stronger it gets but it burns resources fast and is weaker than all other full casters if alone. its like half done. im also working on crafting rules for the one use items he spoke of

So, regarding how hags basically collect knowledge that for some reason no one knows, that gives me an idea for an NPC. Basically, a hag (most likely either a Silat or a Green Hag) decided to play the long game with corrupting things (or just doesn't care), so instead of being granny's evil doppleganger she instead maintains an archive of the bizarre, dark and esoteric knowledge she's gathered and recorded throughout her many centuries within a hut that's much larger on the inside than the outside. All are welcome to browse this sinister library of shadows, but beware, for you may find knowledge man was not meant to know, or stumble across a cursed tome the hag forgot she made and end up as a newt.
