Editing Savage Reflections: Gods and Monsters (section)

=Lesser nightmares=
Most Lesser Nightmares serve as Lieutenants, Soldiers, or Spies for the greater Nightmares.

==Devi==
It is rumored there are seven of these tempters/temptresses beholden to the Jack. They appear in whatever form is most appealing to the one they appear to and ply virtue and vice alike. The Devi are the Jack's collectors and enforcers.

In their natural forms they appear to be men and women of near perfect beauty dressed in diaphanous silks. Each has three gemlike eyes, two set where they should be and the third set high in the center of their brows. Additionally, each has two mouths, one atop the other, with voices in two different ranges and tones and the ability to speak in harmony with themselves or in horrible, jarring discord.

==Raggle Taggles==
Mischievous denizens of the Bazaar, the Raggle Taggles flit about the crowds in scraps of colorful billowing silks and sashes, never stopping long in any one place, and are ubiquitous simply by virtue of the fact that they are literally everywhere. Though newcomers to the Bazaar might be tempted to worry about thievery, the actual purpose of the Raggle Taggles is more subtle, and often more dangerous.

:'''Special:''' The First Rule of the Raggle Taggles is Do Not Talk About the Raggle Taggles. Any attempt to describe these ubiquitous denizens of the Bazaar will be met with amused disbelief and appreciation for a fine tale that might earn a mug in a friendlier place than the City Beneath. Despite the fact that they seem to be everywhere, apparently only the Awakened are actively aware of them.

==Clockwork Insects==
Delicately wrought of copper, brass, and iron to perfectly resemble and mimic actual insects - flies, roaches, locusts, centipedes - Clockwork Insects can be found in abundance everywhere within the Bizarre Bazaar, flitting about, examining everything, suddenly there and suddenly gone. But it is when they are spotted outside the Bazaar that they are most valuable. If a Clockwork Insect is seen outside the Bizarre Bazaar it means that a hidden entrance to the Bazaar is close at hand. The Awakened can use these sightings to enter the Bazaar. This does not require a dice roll, merely a willingness to follow the Clockwork Insect where it leads.

==Vampir==
Vampir are pale humanoid Nightmares created by the Blood Queen from raw human stock and conform closely to the Vampires of popular human lore.

==Willow Women==
Lithe and flexible and tall, the Willow Women are fair skinned with extremely long limbs and hands and feet and toes and fingers, and their hair drops down all about them in a curtain of fine pale braids, like the hanging branches of the willow tree, hiding their faces and most of their form. The Willow Women will not willingly move aside their braids and look directly on another being and tend to keep their heads down and their faces hidden, but if someone were to part those pale braids, stark black eyes with no color or whites would stare back, triiggering an immediate fight or flight response.

:'''Special:''' Willow Women have no mouths and cannot speak.

==The Hound Master==
The Hound Maser is a rugged man clad in hand cured leathers. He has wild hair and a great tangled beard. One eye is green, and one is blue. It is rumored that standing close enough to breathe his breath will leave a strong man drunk and a weak man dead.

==Black Dogs==
Great black hounds standing waist high to a man at the withers with massive heads and jaws, the Black dogs can track anything they have a scent for.

They are their own Ways, able to slip between the City Beneath and the City Slumbering with a thought and come out where they wish.

==Inklings==
Denizens of the Shadow Nethers, inklings resemble tiny spider-like humanoids with huge hands and feet and great grinning maws full of shadowy teeth. Inklings are three dimensional in form, but being made of the stuff of shadow they are somewhat translucent, except for the inside of their mouths beyond their shadowy teeth. That is black as never.

Silent as death, Inklings are never seen unless they wish it, but they are everywhere, watching from the shadows and seeing everything that happens beneath the the City Beneath.

When Inklings attack, they attack in swarms, but though they are utterly invisible while they are ensconced in shadow, they do have to leave the shadows to attack. Their hands have no grip and their teeth have no bite if their bodies remain in shadow.

==The Rakshasa==
The Rakshasa resemble tiger headed men of massive stature and keep the peace in the Silent House acting as the Raj's guards and enforcers.

==The Barber==
The Barber appears as a shrewd muscular man with a bald pate and a massive handlebar mustache in simple clothing and always carrying a wicked looking straight razor. Little happens in the Narrows and Labyrinth that the Barber is unaware through his network of Urchins.

:'''Urchins:''' The vast majority of Urchins are child sized, rumpled and anonymous. They move singly, in pairs, small groups, in their constant spy game. Urchins will rarely act directly against an Awakened so long as their perceived routine is not interrupted or hindered in any way.

==Rag Dolls==
Named for the stuffed cloth dolls they carry everywhere, Rag Dolls look like waifish girls in skirts and pigtails. They seem mostly harmless, skipping along until they are right upon their marked prey, whom they will follow for blocks with no hint of threat. 

But once they draw nigh, their toy dolls dissolve into wickedly sharp tools of rusted metal in their grubby little fists and their faces become crazily grinning jack'o'lanterns wreathed in dragonfire.

==The Catspaw==
Slinking humanoid figures with feline heads, tails, and claws, the Catspaw function like an organized gang, collecting 'protection' and hassling transients for tolls of passage through their tattered fiefdom. On the other hand, they mercilessly root out any other criminal element in the Wharf and will fight off encroaching Nightmares and Awakened alike if they feel they are a threat.

==Plague Rats==
Smaller than the Catspaw, Plague Rats are even more ratlike than the Paws are catlike, but still move mostly upright and have some humanoid characteristics. Though they do not actively provoke the Catspaw, Plague Rats have no interest in order, shakedowns, or protections. They simply do as they wish and slink away into the shadows.

The Rats are not terribly brave unless they know they have numbers or their prey is otherwise helpless.

==Barnacle Boys==
Vaguely shaped like small boys but covered head to toe in a carapace of thousands of living barnacles, the Barnacle Boys hang out on the docks and piers and jetties collecting information for the Catspaw and the Night Callers alike, as well as for any Awakened that can pay their price.

When crouched down against a piling or the base of a dock or storefront, Barnacle Boys all but look like a bit of crumbling foundation. They are also very agile and adept, able to use their bony growths to quickly shimmy up pilings and walls to the rooftops of the Wharf and even up to the Rooftop Jungle.

==Night Callers==
The Night Callers crowd the Rooftop Jungle, leaping from one to another, shouting to one another as they go through their constant game of motion. They are of a size and shape with little children but have the faces of birds and beasts and might have fur or feathers or tails to match the face, though their main limbs remain more human than beast. 

So, while one might have feathers on it's arms that hang down like wings, they are still arms, not actual wings. Not that that makes them any less mobile as they flit about from rooftop to rooftop.

In particular, when the Night Callers spot one of the Awake in their domain, they let out an odd warbling cry that brings more of their kind.
