Today’s prompt is Hag and this Is a Guajona…..

Guajona are also known as Lumia, Yellow Hags, Moon hags, or sometimes Bird Hags.

The Guajona is a very tall and lanky old crone, covered from head to toe in thin black cloth. Her hands and feet are gnarled bird legs and her face is yellow and consumed by lumpy warts and pock marked craters. Her eyes are tiny and bright as stars in the pits of her eye sockets, and she possesses a single black tooth like appendage at the tip of her nose and chin. Like all other Hags, Guajona come from witches who delve too deeply into the arcane arts and are driven to violence and mindlessness. Usually from Moon witches or bird witches, though blood witches can also befall this fate as well if they don’t become a Red Hag first.

Guajona pretend to be large birds on occasion, standing in swamps at a distance while they watch through the eyes of nearby birds, or if it’s night, use their evil eye to behold all that the moonlight touches. They stand on a single leg in swamps, resting as a crane and hiding her true form. During the day they occasionally slither into their underground witch dens burrowed with claws and magic beneath ancient trees or on the site of old arcane leylines. Similarly to vampires, sunlight can damage them, however they are not completely consumed by fire when struck by the sun’s rays, simply inconvenienced. At Night she takes flight, transforming her cloak into black wings and moving silently. They may stand in the sky with magic on moonless nights and allow their crescent face to appear as the moon to throw off wanderers traveling by moonlight, or to blend in as they watch those down below. They can invoke moon madness through creatures that view them, and often stand outside of children’s windows, mesmerizing them into lunacy or luring them outside.

Guajona use their needle like nose and chin to pierce the veins of children and drain their blood, turning their face into a blood moon afterward. Often times they do not kill the child, but leave them drained of blood, anemic, pale and tired. They may target the child for days on end, haunting it’s dreams, and invoking moon madness as they drink, driving the child into insanity and often attempting to get it to kill those around them. Though her usual target Is children, she will also target adults as well.

Creatures that become too pale and are killed by the Guajona may fall into the sky and into space, or be taken to space on the wings of the Guajona where they suffer a violent and painful death.

Guajona can be seen working alongside moon bunnies and moon men, as well as moon beasts in the dreamlands, and among harpies and other twisted or malformed bird creatures, or beasts of the swamps. Guajona require blood rather than emotion or innocence like other hags feed off of, and as such they often work with other hags to split the profit, with the other hag taking the more spiritual aspects from a child and the Guajona taking it’s blood or body. As such they aren’t as common in the dreamlands and are more commonly in the material plane. Some ally themselves with Vampires due to the similarity of drinking blood, and offer their arcane services to the vampire court in exchange for access to the blood of children.

Guajona only form covens with other Guajona in groups of 4 or 8 to mimic the phases and secondary phases of the moon, and in these groups of 4 they are able to improve their power drastically.

Moon bunnies, or moon girls may work as familiars to Guajona, however she may also employ a werewolf or similar moon afflicted creature. Guajona can cause werewolves to transform with their eyes working as the moon, even in the middle of the day, though werewolves are sometimes too chaotic to control. On urth Guajona hide within deep dark forests and swamps and occasionally attack settlements or ally themselves with the vampire courts, while on Earth they are more secretive, but often still attack in the dead of night and cause fear in children throughout town with strange bird and moon sightings cropping up in those same areas afterward.

They occasionally can be found in the Underside worshiping the Harlequin moon and occasionally working with the Piroe.
