  • The Facestretchers are a tribe of monster-like humans that are mentioned in Might and Magic: The Dreamwright, and appears in Might and Magic: The Shadowsmith. They lived in the Aulmad, and were named for their tradition of stretching the faces of their victims into large banners. They were dressed in "loose-fitting blouses and breeches of tawny brown fabric striped with black, with colorful sashes of red, orange, and gold about their waists." They wore soft, round hats that had a veil of white mesh, weighted with white pebbles. Beneath the veil, their faces were "swathed in black linen from the collar to just below the eyes", and they wore necklaces of small silver knives. They spoke the human language, but with a "somewhat peculiar accent". At night, they set up their banners in a loose ring around the camp. They would eat in groups of two or three, using jointed eating sticks. Late at night, they began "ritualistic recitations" and "chanted tales of ancient deeds". The facestretchers were bitter foes of the flaymen, who they considered to be clumsy, stupid, and animal-like. The facestretchers were refined and ritualistic, and ate carefully prepared meals mostly made of vegetables, while the flaymen enjoyed brutishness and spontaneity, and would brawl with one another for a piece of rotten meat.
