Hag is a creature type used for cards that depict is a kind of malevolent female faerie, having the appearance of a wizened old woman. Sometimes Hags are decribed as nightmare spirits. Hags appear in all colors, but red.

The first cards to bear the type were Brine Hag in Legends and Scarwood Hag in The Dark.

Gwyllions
