A new mother looks like she hasn't slept in days. She says her baby sleeps through the night, and that it's simply the stress dreams of a first-time mother that are keeping her up at night. She insists she's ok, since she has a nanny that comes to the house every morning to help. The nightmares continue, however, until one night, the baby wakes up crying. The mother rushes to tend to him, but after days without sleep, she's too distraught to notice the pinch mark on the baby's leg that caused him to wake in the first place, and too groggy to wonder why the nanny is in her home at this strange hour. She's just relieved to have someone trustworthy to watch the child while she rests her eyes for a few minutes. The next morning, she wakes up in a chair in the baby's room to the sound of the nanny, knocking on the door, ready to watch her baby for the day... With deduction and dice rolls, the players realize only a hag would be so malicious that simply taking a baby wouldn't be enough. Instead, they needed to torture the mother by having her hand the child over willingly. Now, they race to a nearby swamp that is devoid of all sounds except that of a child crying in the distance. They follow it, only to discover more green hags using mimicry to fool them, leading them towards sea hags that try to pull them into the murky water and catoblepas and trolls that serve them. Eventually, they are able to find the Night Hag that haunted the poor mother's dreams, and the Green Hag that impersonated her nanny. And if they hurry, they can reach the child before the two witches finish arguing over which of them gets to consume him... Hags can be a great top-end monster for a low-level party and even stir up a great side-quest for a higher-level one.

I have a Sea Hag in my game, she pretended to be an apothecary and started healing this Village but the potions that she gave if somebody stop taking them they would die.

@kikedragoon 7 лет назад

In my Fairy Tale setting, Hags are morally neutral, they don't care for good or evil, and they are more like the "Deal with the Devil" creature, it is common knowledge that you can buy favors and wishes from hags, but most people ask for evil things, and that almost always comes back to bite them in the ass and not the Hag, but they also have a fiendish delight in watching people take displeasures in their wishes. My rules of RPing the Hag come from Sonheim's into the woods, "Careful the wish you make, wishes come true not free" Hags are a wind driving forward unfortunate sails, but they are not evil, the mortals are

Hags in a nutshell: -Annis Hag: melee brute that usually has a few dumb minions and lives in the mountains and hills, likes to get PC's lost. -Borr Hag: strike at innocent villages during winter, try to keep village isolated. Mildly spellcasting. -Green Hag: semi-isolated schemers who do voice mimickry and kidnap children+villagers. Mildly spellcasting, espect a long narrative of plots and backstabs. -Sea Hag: coastal port harrasser, not really powerfull. Their strenght lies in their lairs. -Night Hag: hag-fiend hybrid from Hades. Corrupt people in their sleep to get larvae (AKA soul-worms) and sell them to devils and demons as blood war weapons. Strong spellcasting. -Covens: Hag×3=powerfull clusterf*ck of magic and minions.

@alasdairgoudie9459 7 лет назад

I actually just ran my bunch of 5 4th level players through a night hag coven encounter recently. I expected a really tough fight, but, although they took some knocks, they came out of it without anyone dropping to 0. Little do they know that the coven matriarch's coming back soon, with some banderhobbs, legendary actions, and magic items to *really* even things out. On that related note, though, the whole hag dynamic has actually been one of the most fun things to research and roll up items for. I really commend the Volo's Guide section on them for being an amazing compilation of lore and item tables. And hags are just such great fun to roleplay, too, even though their personalised nightmares made the cleric hate them so much he just charged straight into battle and interrupted their monologue. On a shorter note, love the show, guys!

Hags are my Favorite villains. They are Inherently useful and dynamic villains as a template. As a Template! You can go ahead and buff them with a magic initiate feat, or a simple scrying tool or other uncommon magic item. I feel like a long term campaign where the Lady of a city is a relativley young looking Vampire who's lady in waiting is a Nighthag and her master of spies is an Incubus would be a triad of frustrating and powerful entities that can challenge a third tier party. Their rival faction? A wizard school led by a powerful wizard who uses divination but specializes in Necro divining and eventually becomes a lich using the help of the party.

I think this episode got me past some significant DM writer's block I had about a (probable) upcoming leg of my group's journey. I need a mini-arc in a city (Baldur's Gate) the party is visiting to try to solicit aid. A pair of Night Hag sisters messing with the minds of the city leadership to sow chaos and dissent, and having to dispatch them before the council/leaders/etc. will grant aid, sounds like a great hook. I'll have to watch the Razel-Sinn [sic?] stuff too. Thanks!

It's borrowed from Icelandic lore. The pcs will be from separate villages that have been forced to give yearly tribute to the dragon which is collected by the hag and trolls, and the villages have had enough. This video has helped me work out a lot of ideas! Thank you!

The players are still working up to fight the coven, but knowing the hags use a lot of mimicry and trickery, I have made an effort to include a lot of detail even when it isn't necessary. It not only makes the players not know if it is the hag, or just a bird. Also, a higher level of detail just makes the world more alive.

@princessnikoblackwood4041 4 года назад

I kinda treat hags as evil sorceresses who are more powerful together but hate each other almost as much as they hate non-hags. There's also a bit of Discworld witch influence. They focus on divination, enchantment, and illusion but sometimes dabble in conjuration, necromancy, or transmutation ; in fact, I usually have it that one of a trio will focus on conjuration, one on necromancy, and one of transmutation. The Fates from The Sandman are very much an inspiration. So is Frau Totenkinder from Fables. I also like my hags more powerful than they are presented in the Monster Manuals.

The Daughters of Sora Kell from Eberron are a great example of hags playing the long-game and being sustainable, longterm villains in a campaign.

I’m about to DM a hag-based adventure. It takes place in a mid-sized town (think like Gravity Falls) that’s a popular tourist town due to a large canyon next to town with the ruins of an ancient dwarven town at the bottom. There are 2 businesses that give tours of the canyon, and recently people have been disappearing on tours with one of the tour companies. One of the ruined towers in the canyon is secretly a portal to the Feywild. One of the tour companies made a deal with a hag to become the more successful of the 2 companies. And the hag did make them more popular. By kidnapping people from the competing companies’ tours and framing that company for the crimes. All they needed was their 7th-born child.

I never had the opportunity to use hags before. I had sand brides in dark sun, but nothing traditional. Eberron definitely makes me want to use them. I dig their lore in that setting.
