====== Liath ======

{{ liath.png?300}}

**Liath** ([[pronunciation|Lee-ith]]) is an interactable NPC in //Oh So Hero!//

He is a witch that shows interest in potion-making and possesses magical abilities in shapeshifting and projection/cloning. His relationship with other characters, mainly [[Dyabal]] who is close nearby and expresses disappointment over Liath's use of magic, is currently unknown.

===== Appearance =====

He tuxedo cat with very dark grey and white fur and orange/red demonic horns growing outwards and downwards from his head. He wears a red loincloth and sash with a white rune and a matching red scarf around his neck which frills out on both ends with tattering and holes in the fabric. Liath has a rather feminine face, with long eyelashes, mascara, indigo eyeshadow over his red eyes, and pouty lips.

Liath has the magical abilities, one of them able to transform his physical appearance, that he uses during the second part of his sex scene with [[Joe]] to transform into an identical, but naked, copy of him.

===== Locations =====

Liath can be found at the very end of [[locations#The Forbidden Bayou]], past the exit to the [[locations#Smol Beach]], in front of some kind of wooden hut or shrine. His location is very close to [[locations#Dyabal's Cabin]], while Liath's relation to [[Dyabal]] is unknown, this character doesn't seem very contempt with Liath and his use of magic.

===== Updates =====

In [[changelog_v0.16#Oh So Hero! v0.16.500|version 0.16.500]], Liath got an additional second part to his scene, this is the part that involves his magical abilities in shapeshifting and projections/cloning.

With [[changelog_v0.20#Oh So Hero! v0.20.200|version 0.14.600]], a cauldron was placed by his location. His conversation before this update mentioned his lack of cauldron meant he couldn't make any potions. His conversation was changed with this update to reflect this.

===== Trivia =====

  * Liath is the name of two characters from the narrative of The Irish Myth: //[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Boyhood_Deeds_of_Fionn|The Boyhood Deeds of Fionn]]//.  The first being a helpful woman and the second being an evil man.  This could explain Liath's Androgynous appearance.
    * Liath's name also means grey, which is probably a reference to his dark grey fur color.
  * Liath is one of the few NPCs to be in both Submissive and Dominant positions in his scenes with Joe. The others being [[Tiburon]], [[Bryce]], [[Jaer]], and [[Jack]]. Though, unlike them who remain in their usual appearance, Liath takes the dominant role only while he's transformed into [[Joe]].
