El Cuegle (Wesen) | |
---|---|
Notables: | Isidoro Malpica |
An El Cuegle (el KWEG-ley; Span. Cuegle) is a monster-like Wesen that appeared in "El Cuegle".
Characteristics
When they woge, El Cuegle gain charcoal-gray skin, yellow claws, and a mouth full of razor sharp snaggle-teeth. They also lose their hair. Setting them apart from other Wesen is the third eye residing just above the other two and a secondary right arm that grows roughly around the base of the neck.
El Cuegle are incredibly strong creatures and are able to take on several grown men, including a Grimm, at the same time. They are no more durable than humans and can die from the impact of a long fall.
They possess a truly unique ability: with one eye they see past, the other the present, and the third the future. Through this ability, they will receive visions of a baby who has been recently born that will grow up to do something terrible, usually mass murder or serial killing, should they be allowed to live. These visions cause El Cuegle terrible migraines which have the potential to knock them to the floor and make them lose control of their woge. In the worst cases, El Cuegle will experience convulsions and foam at the mouth.
Behavior
El Cuegle take no pleasure in eating babies, only doing it to end their vision migraines and to potentially save innocent lives. This displeasure can be so strong, however, that they might be tempted to return the baby they kidnapped. They keep the targeted infant for what is referred to as the "Hours of Dread." This waiting period is no less than one day, dreading having to eat the infant the whole time. El Cuegle will not eat a baby until they are certain of Abortar Mal Futuro (uh-bohr-TAHR MAHL foo-TOO-roh; Span. "abort the bad future"), meaning the baby is safe until the El Cuegle confirms through its visions that the baby will indeed grow up to do bad things.
El Cuegle are not afraid of Grimms and are more than willing to take them head on if the Grimm in question is protecting a targeted baby. They are resentful of Grimms because they do not and never have truly understood the plight of El Cuegle.
