Itzal
Revenge and justice are not the realm of Baaphora but there are times when sadism is, the Itzal are manifestations of sadism created by Baaphora. Those who cross Baaphora or anger them stir such thoughts, and an Itzal is only created when they mus serve a purpose. They are cruel hunters that seek out Baaphora's enemies, most of their time is spent as immobile as a statue often under the guard of an Æthelweard in or around a harem site that has been harmed in the past.
The Itzal are capable hunters that toy with their prey using arrows meant to bleed a victim, poisons, traps, and the ability to summon malevolant sprites, fae, and even lesser fiends if needed.
Basic Information
Anatomy
Thin and lithe seeming to be a mix of humanoid fae or elf and centaur, with the taur portion like that of a monitor lizard. Their six limbs are not connected by joints at any part of the limb, instead, they are connected by magical energy that is invisible to the eye. The feet of this creature is designed to have a backward-facing toe that helps them climb, during normal walking they look as if they are wearing high heels. The end of their tail has a heart shape that concealed a retractable stinger filled with a cruel poison that makes its victims more vulnerable to sensations. The membranes are not wings and are not even that useful for swimming, but the quills that support the membrane are hollow and regenerate rapidly when drawn or shot out from the body. The humanoid head has exaggerated elven ears and long hair but the strands resemble feathers.
