[RPG] Are Hags Fey or Fiends

dnd-5efeywildmonsters

The MM indicates that Sea Hags and Green Hags are both fey creatures while Night Hags are considered fiends.

Can anyone clarify if this is a typo and whether they're all supposed to be the same? If so, what should they be?

Best Answer

From page 178 of the MM:

“Night Hags were once creatures of the Feywild, but their foulness saw them exiled to Hades long ago, where they degenerated into fiends.”

So Night Hags are Fiends.
