Strange, tiny creatures. The size of these constantly
weeping, always keening women leads Scions to underestimate
the damage these fae creatures can cause. Banshees
herald the death of someone within hearing range of their
screams, and they bring about those ends. Oftentimes this
occurs because someone has murdered a woman or child,
as the banshees have a keen interest in their fates. Rumors
persist that some didn’t begin as banshee, but the ghosts of
murdered women, raised from their graves and gifted with
fae vengeance and immortality. Their allegiance lies with the
Tuatha Dé Domnann, though not with any particular Titan
within the pantheon; when the Tuatha Dé Danann cast them
out as undesirable fae, the Domnann took them in.
