[b]Race name:[/b] Fearlings

[b]Short blurb about them:[/b] Fearlings are creatures that are made of the nightmares and fears of those around them, most commonly humans. The exact nature on how one of these creatures are brought into the world is shrouded in mystery, though there does seem to be both males and females of the species. Them being both the physical and spiritual manifestation of collected fear they need to generate more of fear to sustain themselves. Mainly through literally scaring their victims to death, though it is said they can keep their needs satisfied without killing. Fearlings are said to live for centuries, they have even claimed to live for thousands of years but it is well known that the species is a very poor source of information as they are notorious liars. Fearlings are known for their masterful form manipulating abilities, the elders of the species being sited to be able to duplicate themselves, as well as their heightened physical powers, their senses being razor sharp and them having inhuman like strength and speed. But the Fearlings more freighting power lies in their comprehension of fear, they perceive fear as an actual physical presence. They have clammed it comes in varies forms ranging from a smell, a taste, a glow or to even a feeling like a tickle or pinch. They use this sense to hunt their targets and use their shapeshifting abilities to torture the fear they need out of the victim. Fearlings are normally seen as monsters do to their dark sense of humor, what they find funny others would find psychotic and sadistic, but this is only because Fearlings are quite literally not able to have normal emotions. Them being made up of the darkest feelings imaginable means they can't experience none of the positive ones such as sympathy, kindness, or love.

[b]Why they fit in this category:[/b] Despite their shadowy nature Fearlings are as well known as they are do to the old legend known as the Boogieman. The Boogieman is the term for a Fearling who goes about feeding on children openly in an attempt to break the Disbelief. Their is also the old movie Jeepers Creepers a human made based off his encounter with a Fearling.

[b]Do they (as a whole) wish to reveal themselves:[/b] Fearlings don't go out of their way to try to hide or to try to be seen because as they see it "Fear is already a solid belief."
