Editing Hag (section)

==Varieties and examples==
* Blood Hags that eat lives including that of their childen, [[Crone Mara]] is one of these.
* Sanguine Hags that bath in blood like the [[wikipedia:Elizabeth Báthory|historical Bathory]]
* Night Hags - feed on nightmares.<ref name=":4">Night Hags had an initial uphill climb with their practice of consuming dreams, because it involved preying on innocents.  They had to pick carefully, and once they started they had to continue, or they got sickly and died.  As they continued, the universe came to accommodate them, which was said to be a common thing with Hags, especially when those Hags were disciplined about their patterns.  They left their humanity further and further behind as they carried on. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/10/31 Excerpt] from [[Cutting Class 6.2]]</ref> Good at traversing dreams and other [[Realm]]s. [[Immaterial]], vulnerable to superstitions and many peculiar things; including symbols of civilization (technology), being sealed off from the forces that empower them, daytime and sun motifs, milk, displays of dominance and mockery, chalk, and general cleansing influences ([[salt]] etc.) Positive bindings might use soot, oil, old fat, dirty water, tangled string, moon and star motifs. The best bindings include the Practitioner as a part of them, close-up and focusing on the Hag, drawing on the creature's interpersonal nature.<ref>[https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/11/26/6-9-spoilers-binding-countermeasures/ Bonus Material: Binding and Countermeasures]</ref> May be related to [[Mare]]s
*Kinder Hags - old women that exploit and use children, the cycle of life feeding on itself.<Ref>The Kinder Hag exists in opposition to childhood, disturbing the natural order to remove the matron from the crone-matron-maiden trinity, gathering children around her and exploiting the vulnerabilities and natures of childhood to extend the strengths and aspects of the aged.  Fate, obviously, ties into this, with tropes, patterns, and setups that can be turned against her, but which also keep the children close and lure them into her grasp.<br><br>More common in the old countries and poor areas, they surround themselves with children as slaves, servants, and livestock, oftentimes orphans or abandoned, and sometimes acquired from Fae markets.  In some cases, they may make their prey younger or keep them young indefinitely.  Those children who try to escape will find the fate-snare will bog them down and the hag will always catch them.  The only way out is by defeating her and she is tough in a gnarled way, and possessed of ancient wisdom, some scattered homespun and hewn-together practices or crude glamours and often a few tricks touching on the themes of age and/or youth. - Wildbow on Discord</ref>
