Verderben (Ger: Doom-laden):

A race of crazed, demonic fae-like Wesen that serve as the inspiration behind the tale of the Dullahan of Irish folklore.

These Wesen tend to be crazy or psychotic at times and don't like to be disturbed or watched, for if something else other than another Wesen or a Grimm watches them, then they were will put a curse on that person that makes them suffer from various things including dementia and the feeling that they are going to die.

Although they are considered psychotic and crazy, these guys rarely ever kill unless they are disturbed.

These Wesen are amazingly fast and can dart around rather well in the air, most times they are seen on some type of transportation or getting on and off one, if a non-Wesen or someone other than a Grimm is around when they're not on a transport of some kind - that person will become deathly ill as this wesen hisses the person's name.

Like Geier, they work in the medical profession and use human organs and bones to make things - especially weaponry or other items.

In woged state their skin takes on a more sickly texture and their hair becomes long and tangled, and their teeth sharpen as their eyes glow and their mouth stretches out into a twisted grin. An ability that this Wesen has is that it can take it's head off and carry it under it's arm.

These Wesen are often confused with Shreckengeist because of the being inspiration to a headless supernatural being thing, but they are entirely different. A Verderben's main weakness is that they are repelled by gold and other shiny materials and minerals. Which is why the glücklich (leprechaun-like Wesen) are often said to be rivals of these ones.
