Gluhwurmchen (Ger. firefly)

July 5, 1726 Massachusetts

"I arrived here in the New World only two weeks ago. My first order of business was to behead and gut the body of a Rotznasig Carcaju that tormented a small town over the course of a month.

I began speaking with the local Native American tribes and they told me about mysterious bonfires appearing in the woods at night and a possible cult presence. Sure enough, the first night I spent with the tribe a bonfire appeared in the distance. I approached the thickly wooded area, poised to face a horde of demonic monsters, but instead I came across a peaceful and seemingly unamed race.

They were an insectoid Wesen species I had never seen or heard of before, a new discovery indeed. They worship fire, but not in a cult manner, but simply because it gives them life. When woged, they have stiff, panel-like organs on their back that give of a green glow. Their glow is brightened by being around fire and the brightness of their glow reflects their health and physical strength. The glow is only ever fully distinguished when they die.

I named this species, in my native language, Gluhwurmchen because they greatly remind me of the familiar insect."
