& TragicMonster: Frighty Aggie was once a werling named Agnilla Hellekin. She was well-known for her wergling skills and could transform into any forest creature, but she craved more. Eventually she wanted to try wergling into insects, something that had never before been attempted by anyone. Her first two tries were successful, but on her third she found she could not change back. Thus she was stuck as a monstrous insect creature who had lost all memory of who she once was.
