description: Kishi are duplicitous and murderous fey who dwell on the edges of Golarion's
  darkest jungles. At first glance, kishi appear to be attractive humans, usually
  of a local ethnicity, but their full heads of thick hair conceal a second face,
  that of a snarling hyena. When a kishi lures their prey into a vulnerable situation,
  their head swivels around, revealing this fearsome visage. In this form, a kishi's
  powerful jaws are almost impossible to pry loose and can crush a victim's bones
  in a matter of moments. Kishi are highly varied in their physical features, and
  their height and weight are as variable as the people whose communities they infiltrate.
