Tzavoa

A tzavoa is a demonic spirit serving Leucrotta, the Unhinged. A Tzavoa most commonly resembles a giant shaggy black hyena with fiery, unblinking eyes of baleful moonlight. To meet the gaze of a tzavoa's saucer-like eyes is said to mean death in the near future, as they are imbued with a powerful curse. It is believed that the footfalls of this beast are utterly silent, and the black hairs which cover its body sometimes wriggle in a deeply unsettling manner, as if they were cilia.
