The Nameless Goose
Singular tales of a fiend that terrorized an entire village single-handedly began to spread in hushed tones. Those who say they have witness the creature themselves claimed that it had nothing but hatred in its eyes, wishing to plunder everything of value and to pillage everything else.
Naturally, these rumors attract the attention and interest of bold adventurers and noble monster slayers, who wish to save the townspeople and add to their list of accolades. Upon finding the town, they find a cowering and and frightened populace, who can only muster hushed tones and quivering, pointing fingers in the direction of the path of destruction.
Many adventurers underestimated the beast upon finding it standing upon a pile of pilfered sundry items, laughing at its diminutive stature. All those who underestimated it leave the village screaming in terror, later to be found spreading the tales in hushed tones. The tales of the nameless feathered abomination: the Nameless Goose.
