The Witch Doctor

One of the less understood is the Witch-Doctor. Its presence is known only by the destruction it leaves in its wake. For some cursed newborns, the Witch-Doctor comes calling, slaughtering anyone in its way and driving the mother mad. The infant, however, suffers a far more gruesome fate. Its eyes and mouth are sewn shut and molten silver is poured into its ears and nose. Its spine is broken. The Witch-Doctor then places its Patient in some secret place; perhaps buried underground or in an old tomb. The Patient, however, will live in spite of this, shaping the minds of mortals that walk above to its own twisted desires.

The Witch-Doctor is said to be accompanied by demonic attendants who prance about in a crazed manner while it works.
