Good question…I look at Krampus like the nasty brother of St. Nicholas. Both members of the same family or opposite sides of the same coin. Perhaps a Fairy would be more appropriate, but either way will make for an interesting NPC.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Sounds cool! That also reminds me, I’ve got to whip up some GA stats for Krampus himself. Next Monday is Krampusnacht after all! The question is whether to make him an actual Devil, or a Fairy.

Last year, I ended up doing a CoC one-shot based in post Weimar Germany focusing on Krampus as the big baddie of choice. I think I can evoke more mystery and horror using Ghastly Affair.

Great idea…now I’ve got 24 days to execute this.
