Misbegotten

The Misbegotten are twisted beings that mix human and animal features. Many have tails, horns, scales or wings, and most have red fur and golden manes. They come in a few kinds: regular Misbegotten with cleavers, Winged Misbegotten with shortbows and Scaly Misbegotten with axes.

They are most at home on the Weeping Peninsula, where they rose up and overran the Godrick soldiers guarding Castle Morne. Morne Tunnel is full of them, and a Scaly Misbegotten waits at its end as a boss. Their kin appear in the Realm of Shadow too, around the Ancient Ruins of Rauh.

How to beat it

Misbegotten are wild and aggressive, but they do not have much health. Keep your shield up against the first flurry, then hit back when they pause. Deal with the Winged ones with bows first if you can, since they will keep shooting at you while you fight the others.

Their bigger relatives, such as the Leonine Misbegotten and the Misbegotten Warrior, are fought as bosses.

Lore

According to the hornsent, aspects of the Crucible once sprouted on a giant long ago, and its influence marked the living things around the Ancient Ruins of Rauh. At some point a group of people came into contact with the Crucible and were changed into the Misbegotten. They were punished for it and treated as outcasts.
