Candy Witch

A Candy Witch is a Demon with multiple magic-like abilities. Candy Witches are Insidious Predators, meaning that they fully resemble a human being and feed on humans, and these Demons prefer children as prey. Unlike many other Insidious demons, Candy Witches have two forms. The human form is an illusion, usually appearing as a young woman with some sort of noticeable mark on the face, such as a wart, scar, or acne, which is actually an illusory cover of the demonic weak point. The monstrous true form is green skinned with shark-like teeth, extra hanging skin around the torso, and long fingers. The illusion around the witch seems to stop humans around them from paying them too much attention unless the witch wants them too. The illusion does not fool technology. Being doused with a bucketful of water will cause extreme pain to the witch and prevent her from maintaining the illusion. 
Candy Witches seek out settlements in the wastelands that do not have a high technological capability or many people in it. First, they build a hidden lair a short distance away, which can be made to appear with another illusion as something tempting, such as a cabin made of gingerbread, a stock of supplies, or an oasis of clean water. Many Candy Witches keep other demons around as guards, most commonly a Tooth Fairy or Harvest Fiend. They hunt by luring humans to their lairs, where the guard demon is first fed a portion of the victim before the witch roasts them, storing the entire carcass away for later use after eating their fill. Some more powerful Candy Witches have been known to trick humans into eating some of this, which opens them up to possession by cannibal demons.
