Monster concept for ToW.

He's gonna steal all teh babies! Or maybe just...creep.

Spriggans inhabit dark, damp areas of the world. Their posture is hunched due to spending most of their time in caverns and tunnels with lower ceilings. Hunched over, they are approximately 3 feet in height; however, when standing upright, they reach heights of around 6 feet. Their skin is a dewy, mottled green or gray. They bind knives and other various sharp implements to their wrists via bandages (that I forgot to draw.)

Spriggans hunt in small packs of 4 to 8, ganging up on their prey and dragging it down with their claws and weight. Just because they travel in packs does not mean they get along. Spriggans are just as likely to turn on one of their own if prey is scarce.

A Spriggan's territory is easy to spot, deep claw marks mark the walls and floors. A Spriggan itself is a master of camouflage. These amphibious creatures move very slowly and carefully, and when they sense prey coming they hide in wait of ambush. A Spriggan will typically be found near a dark place with a source of water. Sewers, underground creaks, or even abandoned houses along the river all serve them well.
