The raven mocker is a monster of Cherokee folklore. In Beyond the Pale they stalk remote forests, preying upon those who get lost within their woods. They draw heavily upon the Cherokee myth and a European creature known as a valravn.

Raven mockers can be used as an excellent threat against players out in the wilderness, able to ratchet up tension as they attempt to move through its territory. Even when they are safe in civilization, a raven mocker faced with cold iron can become a reoccurring threat, even if the party has escaped into an urban environment.

This also marks the first step in improving the presentation of monster lore entries, integrating text and artwork together. Please, like, share and comment on what you think! Beyond the Pale thrives on word of mouth and every bit of exposure helps.
