Gratchen
Sometimes, a Gretchling will bite off a little more than it can chew. By devouring the energy from a cursed item or an occult scroll, a Gretchling might transform into a Gratchen. A Gretchling’s harmless curiosity gives way to contemptible malice as it becomes a Gratchen, and its skin takes on an ashen quality. Its fingers grow metallic claws, and its eyes and blood become molten hot.
