Ecology: Black Annis (or Black Anges) dwells in the Dane Hills near Leicestershire, England. She has a cave there, called Black Annis's Bower, with a large oak tree out front. Black Annis will hide in the oak after dark, leaping out to grab unwary children and lost lambs. Once she has captured her prey, she will take her victim into her cave to be devoured. The bones will be scattered, but the skin will be hung from the oak to dry.

Personality/Motivation: A cannibalistic hag, Annis preys on people, especially children, as well as young sheep. She tends to remain near her cave, but has been known to prowl the countryside, reading into open windows to steal small children out of their beds.

Powers/Tactics: Black Annis normally lurks in a hollow in her oak tree, waiting for someone foolish enough to wander by after dusk. She will then leap out and grab her victim, take him into her cave, and quickly devour him. If attacked, she will defend herself, attacking her the long iron claws that tip her fingers. As these claws allow her to dig caves in solid rock, they are usually more then sufficient to shred and mortal foe.

Appearance: Black Annis is a tall, blue-faced female humanoid with yellow fangs, long claws, and long tangled hair.
