of disenchanter hair was typically used in the creation of a bottle of oil of disenchantment.

The Chauntean House of Bountiful Harvest saw the creatures as a blessing from their goddess, and decreed no harm should come to them.

The Guild retracted this bounty not too long after they deemed the danger was quelled.
