Hooded Assassin

Aptly named “Snake Demons” by the Galeshi, Hooded Assassins prowl the western deserts seeking prey and treasure. Armed with curved blades, awesome combat abilities, and a hypnotic stare that can freeze enemies in their tracks, a single Hooded Assassin is capable of murdering an entire Galeshi trade caravan over the course of a week, one ugly death at a time. Apart from the screams of their victims, there is often little trace of these beings in the open desert, save for the serpentine tracks they sometimes leave behind to frighten potential prey.
