Summary: At some disagreed upon time in the last 75 years, the woman known as Maggie Grimm began haunting a long stretch of the Grand Imperial Road, going as far west as Arrondale and as far east as Magyrr. She is most often seen in the lonely and hilly areas of the Grimwood. She usually strikes at night, but has been known to attack people during daylight hours.
Maggie prefers to attack young men, but will not pass up a chance to attack older men. She has never attacked a woman. This has lead to many caravans hiring female guards who charge greatly inflated rates.
The exact method of killing varies a bit. Sometimes, Maggie just slays her prey with a razor sharp sword, while other times she uses a Whisper of Death spell. Still others die when uses some method to just scare them to death. Rumors that she takes a body part from each victim as a souvenir are false. She does take a bit of cloth from each corpse, but only a small piece.
One of the most troubling things about Maggie, other than the slaughter of men, is the fact that she does not seem to ever be detected by animals. Guard dogs never sense her presence and horses do not react fearfully. She once pulled a guard off a wagon full of live chickens without triggering so much as a squawk.
It is unknown if Maggie Grimm is alive or undead, but most caravan guards come prepared for either state of being. Not that it seems to do them any good.
Anyone who can kill or capture Maggie Grimm would be able to collect several rewards and become very wealthy.
