User blog:AustinDR/PE Proposal: Popobawa

Who is he?
The Popobowa is a humanoid cryptid, well, more frankly, I'd consider it more demonic in line with entities such as the incubus. The Popobawa is bat-like in appearance possessing a large mouth arrayed with sharp teeth; bat wings; pointed ears; smells of sulfur; and a fiery eye. The Popobowa had been spread around as a legend in its native home Zanzibar.

What has it done?
Here is where the Popobawa is notorious and dreaded. It is a serial rapist who breaks into the houses of its victims and gets onto its victims to press down on them, nearly killing them. After it does this, the Popobawa would then threaten further violence on them if they didn't spread the word about what it had done. To add onto its further disgusting love of rape, the Popobawa can also hypnotize people by subduing them with its one eye, or it is also known to take the form of family members before subsequently raping the entire household.

Sightings of the Popobawa had been around since 1972 where reports of the creature attacking and raping the populace caused mass hysteria. Through the years, stories about the Popobawa would continue into the 1990s and at least the early to mid 2000s.

Moral Agency
There are actually many evil spirits in these East Asian folk stories called the shetani. However, there exists spirits that were exceptionally evil with him committing acts of horrid sodomy where it was attributed to violent cases of sodomy...its victims often being men. As for moral agency...as I have said, it comes off as especially heinous due to its love of rape and fearmongering. It makes it a point where it chooses to commit these atrocities. Unlike with most cases of these monsters, the Popobawa can actually speak -- well in the people of Zanzibar's native tongue, of course - where it sadistically tells its victim to spread the word lest it inflict further violence on them.

Heinous standard
A serial rapist. It stands out particularly because of its sick fondness for raping and sodomizing its victims. So much so, there had been several instances of mass hysteria being sparked because of the legend.

No Sympathy
It is a prolific rapist shapeshifter. What sympathy?

Verdict
Pass, I would say myself.
