Stilts of Skin
While The Pie Piper conjures itself from the pleasure of refusal of payment from services rendered, Stilts of Skin is borne from the vicious greed of the already wealthy. Adorned in the glass beads and rings of those it bargains with, Stilts of Skin wields a strand of razor sharp gold, able to lop off limbs so cleanly the wound barely bleeds.
(Based on the 1857 version of Rumpelstiltskin, where he gets so angry at the queen learning his name that he pulls himself in half.)
Tried to go full Chainsaw Man on this one. I want some of the more famous Fae to be absolutely terrifying.
