However, this is only an illusion and will be imperfect. They signature abilities are a from of invisibility that also allows the hag to move without trace and the ability shapechange into another creature. Green hags are amphibious and have some minor spellcasting abilities. Mechanically, green hags are CR 3 (CR 5 in a coven). Green hags are also obsessed with the "failings and tragedies" of other creatures because they read Shakespeare. I guess that's just what evil green creatures do in D&D. Green hags are manipulators, just like green dragons. Of the three hags presented here, its probably the one that's closest to a fairy tale witch. The green hag lives in caves in swamps and marshes. Sounds like a good way to soften up a coven before and attack. A hag coven can only has one eye at a time, and when it's destroyed, they hags take 3d10 psychic damage and are blinded for 24h. This is probably based on the Graeae from Greek mythology. It's often carried by a loyal minion as a mobile security camera (with night vision!). Ray of Sickness, Bestow Curse, Phantasmal Killer, Contact Other Plane, Eyebite).Ī coven can also create a Hag Eye, a magical item that allows the hags to see through it. Together, they can cast a bunch of additional spells as a 12th-level caster (e.g. These covens always consist of three hags of any type. They exchange knowledge and a hag that announces its presence when entering another hag's territory won't be harmed. Hags don't necessarily like one another, but respect each other. They hate beautiful creatures and sometimes transform them into something ugly out of spite. They are willing to sell these goods in exchange for something precious, which makes a hag and interesting noncombat NPC. Hags have vast knowledge about magic, dark rituals and forbidden lore. Does the Feywild even have a human population? Others are returned to their original parents to freak them out. Some hag children grow up with their hag mothers. The new hag will look like a human but transform into a hag upon reaching puberty. They give themselves slightly cheesy names (Peggy Pigknuckle, Grandmother Titchwillow, Auntie Wormtooth) and reproduce by stealing human babies, eating them and then giving birth to a new hag.
Hags originate from the Feywild and are EVIL.
They are most likely based on hags from Anglo-Saxon folklore in general and on Black Annis specifically. The hags are the evil fairy tale witches of D&D.
