The feyen are a strange creature who have bound themselves as servants to the Oracle of Ghul Tulak, a god-like sentient being housed within a deep chasm in the ruins of the ancient City of Secrets.
Standing over six feet in height, the feyen have a translucent, willowy frame that belies their incredible powers. A feyen will overtake or incapacitate a victim, then with a distended jaw, swallow the victim whole. Once the victim is consumed, the feyen’s translucent skin conforms to the shape of the victim, and a mental bond links to their memories. Within the feyen, the consumed victim exists in a dream-like state, but remains unharmed. The feyen will continue to live and act as this doppelgänger until successfully gathering whatever information it seeks. The memory link aids in its disguise, but those who know the victim well may notice certain mannerisms or characteristics that give rise to suspicion.
A feyen must rest at least eight hours a day, and if weary, others may notice certain other telltale signs that something is not quite right. One such giveaway is that the eyes of the feyen will revert back to normal if the creature becomes over-tired, or is significantly wounded The true eyes of a feyen have a cat’s eye pupil and double eyelids that blink both vertically and horizontally. When at last satisfied with the knowledge it has gained, the feyen will regurgitate its victim and return to the Oracle with the stolen knowledge, whispering these secrets into the chasm, thus empowering the sentience presence within.
