Crones are old women with sallow skin, long unkempt grey hair, and have lost most of their teeth. They wear olive-colored robes and pointy hats and fly on a besom with a red handle and brown twigs, giving them the appearance of a stereotypical witch or hag seen in fairy tales. They attack by smacking enemies with their brooms like a club.
