Blissleech

"'Those who walk with heavy heart beware the blissful leeches""With every lie that you confess it's dreamy hold increases""When heart is light and there remain no more secrets to reveal""With a smile, you'll expire you're now a blissleech meal.' - Creepy Nursery rhyme sung in the Town of Shattered Winds."

The Blissleech is the smallest of the Midnight Beasts. They are parasitic leeches that alter their host's minds by pumping mind-altering venom into the host's nervous system. They coat themselves in a thick mucus-like goo that acts as an adhesive to their host's body. They also have only one sense, which draws them toward people who are currently harboring secrets. Blissleeches typically attach themselves to the back of the neck on their host. Once a Blissleech has latched onto a person, that person will begin to feel a sense of bliss as they reveal all of the secrets that they have been harboring. With each truth the person tells, the Blissleeches venom will inch closer to the hosts heart. Once all of a host's secrets have been revealed their heart will simply stop, and the host will die with a pleasant smile on their face.

If one pulls a Blissleech off of a host, it will shrivel up and die immediately.

They range from being the size of a pea to a household cat.

Because of it's very useful properties, Blissleech venom is among one of the most sought after venoms in the land of Qi.
