The first Aberseth emerged from the dreams of a deranged alchemist. Driven by an insatiable desire to combine the finest attributes of diverse creatures, this endeavor resulted in countless failures before the Aberseth came into existence. This amalgamation bears an avian form, graced with a long, sinuous neck supporting a mammalian head, crowned with a splendid rack of antlers. The Aberseth's appearance might evoke a sense of innocence and charm, yet the alchemist's meddling gifted it an uncanny gift to see the ethereal auras of all living beings. Thus, it possesses the uncanny ability to discern the integrity of one's spirit. Those of pure heart may approach the creature without fear, but one with malice in their heart will provoke its deadlier senses. In the blink of an I it will unhinge its jaws, unleashing sinuous tendrils, keen as blades, to eviscerate the malicious transgressor.
