User blog:Lea.petra/I have been thinking about the "faceless ones".

It sounds like two separate monsters have been described. One possessing a person to make them kill. The others only described as faceless. But I am thinking they might be the same, perhaps only one creature?

I have been looking to folklore for inspiration this is what I found.

Japan has a few faceless creatures. One is the Noppera-bo. Relatively harmless. They are used to warn people. They wipe their faces off to scare people.

But one, not from Japan, got me excited. The Allu. The allu are off springs of a succubus and a human male. They are faceless and love to destroy things. They are mainly after their father's soul. No mention of what happens if they do not get it.

This sounds like a good basis for our faceless ones, or perhaps something more sinister.
