BEAST
Also called: Tengu Potion Hawker
The Tengu Potion Hawker wanders the back roads, his feathered cloak heavy with vials, brews, and dubious remedies.
Part bird, part charlatan, this sharp-beaked wanderer shouts his wares through a battered megaphone, promising vitality, luck, love, and relief from ailments you didn't realize you possessed.
His towering yurt hat conceals a collection of oddities, while his long coat is stuffed with unusual herbs, questionable brewing equipment, and precious restorative vitae.
Though certainly a trickster, the Hawker is not entirely dishonest. His potions often perform precisely as promised, though rarely in the manner expected.
Those who buy from him frequently discover that the cure is worse than the curse.
Ranger Wisdom: Never purchase a potion whose ingredients are still moving.
