A malicious fey from the Heroes of Horror book.
Descriptive Text
A book on Darkonese folklore I was reading told me about a puzzling being that could possibly be a subtype of bogeyman? I need to search more on these “gray jester”, as it is often called, to make an educated guess on its exact nature.
In short, I learned from this book the creature always appears as a very thin jester, clown or mime and mainly attacks children. This fact attracted my attention, of course. It is said to entertain children and then use the grim ability of draining the joyous emotions from the children it attacks, leaving them as mind drained automatons under the jester’s control. Does this bogeyman “feed” on joyous thought?
However I understand from the book many adults have seen the creature, which is puzzling and wildly atypical from the other bogeymen. More enquiry needed on this case.
