Meazels are Small monstrous humanoids of malevolent and sneaky natures that dwell in marshes, sewers, and underground environments[1][2]. They are known to be native to Faerun, especially Cormyr[2]. Meazels are almost entirely solitary creatures[1][2]. Appearing as deformed, scabrous creatures resembling lepers, meazels carry a horrid skin disease that seems to cause them no harm save for the disfiguring red patches on their skin[1][2]. The same cannot be said for their victims, whom are gradually drained of their health and dexterity[2].
Meazels lie in wait for victims, and they readily attack and consume humanoids for their flesh, usually preying upon kobolds or orcs but will readily eat other prey.[1]. From ambush, a meazel may attack with a garrote cord to strangle victims[1]. Meazels can also attack with their claws[1][2], through which they pass their skin disease[2].
In the Land of Mists
A Faerunian meazel named Salizarr was taken by the Mists to Darkon, where he inhabited the sewers of Il Aluk.[3]
