Description: Cucos take many forms, all of them insubstantial. Some favorites include dragons, giants, and people known to their victims.

Procreation: None. These are created from the souls of faeborn races.

Magic: None.

Special Powers: Cucos take an innocuous form, sneak into the rooms of the weak, and devour them whole. Parental love can protect their victims from the cuco, so they seek children whose parents are angry with them as the easiest prey. They will cause nightmares in good children, making them cry out and waken (and thus anger) their parents, so as to take them more easily.

It is a 16 nightmare or undeath power to make one.
