Bugaboo
A bogeyman grown monstrous on stolen fear hunts to consume rather than merely frighten, devouring the very souls of those it kills.
A bugaboo is a bogeyman grown monstrous on the terror of others — a stalking horror that feeds on fear and devours the souls of those it kills. Where lesser goblinoids frighten, the bugaboo hunts to consume.
In play
The bugaboo is immune to fear and moves with unnatural mobility. Its claw deals striking fear on a hit.
