Lore

The Lavellan are eerie creatures from Scottish folklore, often described as small rodent-like beings dwelling within dark forests and hidden burrows. Though their appearance seemed harmless, legends claimed they possessed deadly supernatural powers capable of harming humans and animals alike. Some tales warned that merely crossing paths with a Lavellan could bring sickness or doom. Feared as malevolent spirits of the wilderness, they became part of the strange and unsettling folklore whispered through the Highlands for generations.
