description: Night hags are thieves and merchants of mortal souls. These foul creatures
  collect souls in dark gems or crystalline jars to sell in fiendish markets, and
  are themselves empowered by potent magic jewels known as *heartstones*. They haunt
  the Ethereal Plane, where they prey upon mortals in their dreams, debilitating them
  with horrific nightmares as they rest. A night hag may find a particular target
  and haunt them continuously over the course of weeks, slowly and cruelly breaking
  down the victim's will and ability to resist, until their soul is forfeit.
