Slempdeeper
The Slempdeeper is a scary monster. It was first recorded in 2020 and has terrorized people since. The Science Guild has little information on it, but what they do know is frightening. It has physic powers. When using them, it instills what is described as feeling of "as sleepy as if you had stayed up for hours upon hours on end". It often strikes at night, but don't be fooled and think it is your brain telling you to sleep, it's the Slempdeeper. You must go to bed immediately, as it snaps the monster's concentration. It is said to feed on tired thoughts, but there is much debate. From the small bits and pieces of firsthand accounts, we think it has four black legs, all equally spaced out. It has a long neck, with a glow around its head, like a lamp in a fog, all black. It might come with mist around it, or it might generate mist around it. Coffee is said to get rid of it, but then when it wears off, make it worse. Sometimes it will "sit" on the bed, near the foot of it, and make it so that if you wake up at night, you feel as if can't breathe or get up, the only choice is to go back to bed (Sort of like the Old Hag, seen by people with extreme Narcolepsy [read the Mysterious Benedict Society]). If you don't, we never know. Firsthand accounts often describe a heavy type of feeling when it is close. Then again, all of these accounts have come from mentally and physically shattered students, often huddling in corners, with large dark spots under their eyes, and burying their heads in their arms. It also seems to bring the air of forbearing of the forest of loohcs. Seeing that, many people theorize that it has it's hold in that forsaken forest. Expeditions have been sent with limited success, with both seeing and not seeing it, amoung the other terrors that lurk in loohcs. If you do see or experience any of this, contact the Science Guild for documentation.
