Special
Feed on Fear
When encountered in its natural form, all opponents must make a morale check each round. For every person who fails, their morale is semi-permanently lowered by 1, and the baubas heals 1d6 HP. Only a **restoration** spell will return their morale to normal.
Special
Grab and Hold
In combat, the baubas may attack with its claws, attempting to grab hold of people. Once they are held, it may bite them or drag them away to murder them in private, usually in some manner that is cruel and unusual.
Special
Shapeshifting
They have the ability to shapeshift into an ugly old man in order to lead their victims into traps.
Special
Magic Powers
They may cast **darkness**, **phantasmal force**, and **invisibility** each once per day, and have a 90% chance of being able to hide in the dark.
Special
Immunity to Non-magical Weapons
As they are otherworldly creatures, a baubas cannot be harmed by non-magical weapons.

Gangly 8-foot tall infernals with long dirty fingers, big red eyes, and rows of exaggerated sharp yellow teeth
Baubas are gangly 8-foot tall infernals with long dirty fingers, big red eyes, and rows of exaggerated sharp yellow teeth. Colloquially known as "bogeymen", they are known to terrorize people and especially children. Oftentimes, the baubas will take up residence in some dark corner of a person's house---the basement, the closet, or even underneath a bed---though they may also be found stalking people in forests, rivers, caves, or dungeons as well. They have the ability to shapeshift into an ugly old man in order to lead their victims into traps, whom they will ultimately kill and devour once they are finished toying with them. The baubas may indeed wait a long while before finally eating their victim, as terror makes the meat taste sweeter.
