Stisshak

A Will-o'-wisp that claimed to be an ancient ancestor of King Vesket, of the Longtail Tribe. It offered bad advice to the tribe, slowly leading them to ruin and feeding on their despair.   When The Adventurers entered its hut in Longtail Village, it appeared, causing them to be shaken. Avarice Skjegge tried to take items from its hut, and Stisshak called for Vesket, frightening Avarice.   While The Adventurers confronted Vesket outside, Stisshak had a short conversation with Alain Orlovsky, offering Alain power and knowledge, and to accompany Alain to their new kingdom. In exchange, it wanted Alain to "cause despair" to Kiin by telling her she and her party couldn't beat Vesket. Alain neither accepted nor rejected the proposal, saying he'd think about it, but they could probably handle the village. He was captured in the fight that followed after realizing Stisshak was right and they couldn't handle fighting the entire village at once.   Kiede killed it while rescuing Alain.
