Hobs

Back To Start: Dancers in the Neon Dusk Wiki

These creatures born of the Hedge are both chaotic and lawful. They will obey any oaths given to the letter and expect others to do the same, but their general day-to-day behaviour is unpredictable. A hob could resemble an animal or a human, or a plant, sentient swarm or even a mobile object. They are without compassion or morality, though this doesn’t necessarily make them malicious. Some can even become companions to changelings in exchange for protection from stronger hobs. Hobs still need to eat, drink, have shelter and feed their urges and desires. They may build homes and manage gardens, carve paths through thorny walls, provide medical care to their kind, hunt beasts, repair or make devices or trade with those who do. Hobs can enter the mundane world and look like a mundane version of themselves (i.e. they have their own Masks) though doing so for too long is typically an unpleasant experience for them.
