Viuda

A tall woman dressed in black with her head and face obscured by a dark shawl. Walking she shows bare, white feet whilst her petticoats rustle.

By night she travels the roads looking for trouble, persecuting good fellows and taking advantage of the unwise. Her victims are taken by the shoulder and stupefied by her breath. Once in her power, she carries them to her shack where they are obliged to satisfy her desires. At dawn she takes them far from home and leaves them in any convenient spot. The stupefaction does not appear to do permanent harm and the poor fellows regain their reason within a few days.

Her soft spot is for a horseman, she jumps up behind, hugs him and stupefies him. If he turns out to be immune to her breath she releases her embrace and strangles him instead. When she prowls around homes and is disturbed she can be glimpsed disappearing mysteriously into the shadows.
