Quoth the Night-Gaunt:

*None – just a blank face looking through you…

Kith Excerpt:

In the skies of the Dream-Lands, or out past Sarkomand, there is one Mythian Tribe that begets night-mares of even the stoutest of Outer World adventurers. The Night-Gaunts are faceless, expressionless, genderless, and faster than the eye can follow. On black wings they descend on mortals… and tickle out Glamoure in a reaping most perverse.

This tickling is the means in which the Night-Gaunts refuel their magic, but the Mists that usually protect such reapings, are at the beck and call of this Strange Mythian tribe. If a Night-Gaunt wants a victim to remember, then they’ll remember. IF they want them to forget, they’ll forget.

Despite their seemingly obvious infernal appearance, the Night-Gaunts aren’t devils. They can be sought out and appealed to just as any other Tribe could, perhaps more than other Tribes, as chaos isn’t their repertoire-neither is greed, or hunger, or disgust. They are cold and expressionless alien Outer-Tribes, yes. But they aren’t monsters. They simply are. And they are more-so than most.

“All they ever did was clutch and fly and tickle; that was the way of Night-Gaunts.”
