Faestruck

Description:

There is considerable disagreement about who or what the faestruck are. Some say they are people who have been mesmerized or otherwise enchanted by fae, either after being abducted or perhaps after joining some secret fae cult. Others say that they are humanoid/fae hybrids; somehow born through the cross-breeding of ordinary humanoids and fae - perhaps after being taken by an elderoot tree. Still others argue the faestruck are conceptually similar to golems - enchanted constructs created or grown by the fae to immitate humanoids, perhaps with the aim of infiltrating or spying on humanoid societies. In any case, most interpretations consider them abominations that must be destroyed.

Faestruck have the superficial, outward appearance of ordinary humanoids, but their blood has been replaced by a milky white sap-like fluid, which seemingly grants them the poison and disease immunity common to most fae. This sap-like blood is the only physical way to distinguish them from ordinary humanoids, and they are able to pass as ordinary people in many situations. However, when engaged socially, they will be revealed as skittish, confused, and awkward - unable to carry on more than the simplest conversations, and prone to sudden aggression if pressed.

Special:

All faestruck are immune to poison and disease. Additonally, any melee attack that is landed against a faestruck that imposes the bleeding effect or cause the faestruck to enter the bleeding state will cause the attacker to exposed to the Milk Rash disease.
