The attempted outrage of Nessos on - Deianeira, and that of the whole tribe of Centaurs on the - Lapith women, are more than offset by the hospitality of - Pholos and by the wisdom of Cheiron, physician, prophet, - lyrist, and the instructor of Achilles. Further, the Cen- - taurs were peculiar in that their nature, which united the - body of a horse with the trunk and head of a man, involved - an unthinkable duplication of vital organs and important - members. So grotesque a combination seems almost un-Greek. - These strange creatures were said to live in the caves and - clefts of the mountains, myths associating them especially - with the hills of Thessaly and the range of Erymanthos. - [Mythology of all races, Vol. 1, pp. 270-271] -D a dragon; - In the West the dragon was the natural enemy of man. Although - preferring to live in bleak and desolate regions, whenever it was - seen among men it left in its wake a trail of destruction and - disease. Yet any attempt to slay this beast was a perilous under- - taking. For the dragon's assailant had to contend not only with - clouds of sulphurous fumes pouring from its fire-breathing nos- - trils, but also with the thrashings of its tail, the most deadly - part of its serpent-like body. - [From: Mythical Beasts by Deirdre Headon (The Leprechaun Library)] -E a floating eye -F a freezing sphere -G a gnome; - ... And then a gnome came by, carrying a bundle, an old fellow - three times as large as an imp and wearing clothes of a sort, - especially a hat. And he was clearly just as frightened as the - imps though he could not go so fast. Ramon Alonzo saw that there - must be some great trouble that was vexing magical things; and, - since gnomes speak the language of men, and will answer if spoken - to gently, he raised his hat, and asked of the gnome his name. - The gnome did not stop his hasty shuffle a moment as he answered - 'Alaraba' and grabbed the rim of his hat but forgot to doff it. - 'What is the trouble, Alaraba?' said Ramon Alonzo. - 'White magic. Run!' said the gnome ... - [From: The Charwoman's Shadow, by Lord Dunsany.] -H a hobgoblin; - Hobgoblin. Used by the Puritans and in later times for - wicked goblin spirits, as in Bunyan's 'Hobgoblin nor foul - friend', but its more correct use is for the friendly spir- - its of the brownie type. In 'A midsummer night's dream' a - fairy says to Shakespeare's Puck: - Those that Hobgoblin call you, and sweet Puck, - You do their work, and they shall have good luck: - Are you not he? - and obviously Puck would not wish to be called a hobgoblin - if that was an ill-omened word. - Hobgoblins are on the whole, good-humoured and ready to be - helpful, but fond of practical joking, and like most of the - fairies rather nasty people to annoy. Boggarts hover on the - verge of hobgoblindom. Bogles are just over the edge. - One Hob mentioned by Henderson, was Hob Headless who haunted - the road between Hurworth and Neasham, but could not cross - the little river Kent, which flowed into the Tess. He was - exorcised and laid under a large stone by the roadside for - ninety-nine years and a day. If anyone was so unwary as to - sit on that stone, he would be unable to quit it for ever. - The ninety-nine years is nearly up, so trouble may soon be - heard of on the road between Hurworth and Neasham. - [Katharine Briggs, A dictionary of Fairies] -I an invisible stalker -J a jackal -K a kobold -L a leprechaun; - The Irish Leprechaun is the Faeries' shoemaker and is known - under various names in different parts of Ireland: Cluri- - caune in Cork, Lurican in Kerry, Lurikeen in Kildare and Lu- - rigadaun in Tipperary. Although he works for the Faeries, - the Leprechaun is not of the same species. He is small, has - dark skin and wears strange clothes. His nature has some- - thing of the manic-depressive about it: first he is quite - happy, whistling merrily as he nails a sole on to a shoe; a - few minutes later, he is sullen and morose, drunk on his - home-made heather ale. The Leprechaun's two great loves are - tobacco and whiskey, and he is a first-rate con-man, impos- - sible to out-fox. No one, no matter how clever, has ever - managed to cheat him out of his hidden pot of gold or his - magic shilling. At the last minute he always thinks of some - way to divert his captor's attention and vanishes in the - twinkling of an eye. - [From: A Field Guide to the Little People - by Nancy Arrowsmith & George Moorse. ] -M a mimic -N a nymph -O an orc -P a purple worm -Q a quasit -R a rust monster -S a snake -T a troll -U an umber hulk -V a vampire -W a wraith -X a xorn -Y a yeti -Z a zombie -a an acid blob -b a giant beetle -c a cockatrice; - Once in a great while, when the positions of the stars are - just right, a seven-year-old rooster will lay an egg. Then, - along will come a snake, to coil around the egg, or a toad, - to squat upon the egg, keeping it warm and helping it to - hatch. When it hatches, out comes a creature called basil- - isk, or cockatrice, the most deadly of all creatures. A sin- - gle glance from its yellow, piercing toad's eyes will kill - both man and beast. Its power of destruction is said to be - so great that sometimes simply to hear its hiss can prove - fatal. Its breath is so venomenous that it causes all vege- - tation to wither. - There is, however, one creature which can withstand the - basilisk's deadly gaze, and this is the weasel. No one knows - why this is so, but although the fierce weasel can slay the - basilisk, it will itself be killed in the struggle. Perhaps - the weasel knows the basilisk's fatal weakness: if it ever - sees its own reflection in a mirror it will perish instant- - ly. But even a dead basilisk is dangerous, for it is said - that merely touching its lifeless body can cause a person to - sicken and die. - [From: Mythical Beasts by Deirdre Headon (The Leprechaun - Library) and other sources. ] -d a dog -e an ettin -f a fog cloud -g a gelatinous cube -h a homunculus -i an imp; - ... imps ... little creatures of two feet high that could - gambol and jump prodigiously; ... - [From: The Charwoman's Shadow, by Lord Dunsany.] - - An 'imp' is an off-shoot or cutting. Thus an 'ymp tree' was - a grafted tree, or one grown from a cutting, not from seed. - 'Imp' properly means a small devil, an off-shoot of Satan, - but the distinction between goblins or bogles and imps from - hell is hard to make, and many in the Celtic countries as - well as the English Puritans regarded all fairies as devils. - The fairies of tradition often hover uneasily between the - ghostly and the diabolic state. - [Katharine Briggs, A dictionary of Fairies] -j a jaguar -k a killer bee -l a leocrotta -m a minotaur -n a nurse -o an owlbear -p a piercer -q a quivering blob -r a giant rat -s a scorpion -t a tengu; - The tengu was the most troublesome creature of Japanese - legend. Part bird and part man, with red beak for a nose - and flashing eyes, the tengu was notorious for stirring up - feuds and prolonging enmity between families. Indeed, the - belligerent tengus were supposed to have been man's first - instructors in the use of arms. - [From: Mythical Beasts by Deirdre Headon - (The Leprechaun Library). ] -u a unicorn; - Men have always sought the elusive unicorn, for the single - twisted horn which projected from its forehead was thought - to be a powerful talisman. It was said that the unicorn had - simply to dip the tip of its horn in a muddy pool for the - water to become pure. Men also believed that to drink from - this horn was a protection against all sickness, and that if - the horn was ground to a powder it would act as an antidote - to all poisons. Less than 200 years ago in France, the horn - of a unicorn was used in a ceremony to test the royal food - for poison. - Although only the size of a small horse, the unicorn is a - very fierce beast, capable of killing an elephant with a - single thrust from its horn. Its fleetness of foot also - makes this solitary creature difficult to capture. However, - it can be tamed and captured by a maiden. Made gentle by the - sight of a virgin, the unicorn can be lured to lay its head - in her lap, and in this docile mood, the maiden may secure - it with a golden rope. - [From: Mythical Beasts by Deirdre Headon - (The Leprechaun Library). ] -v a violet fungi -w a long worm; - From its teeth the crysknife can be manufactured. -~ the tail of a long worm -x a xan; - The xan were animals sent to prick the legs of the Lords of Xibalba. -y a yellow light -z a zruty; - The zruty are wild and gigantic beings, living in the wildernesses - of the Tatra mountains. -1 The wizard of Yendor -2 The mail daemon -- cgit v1.2.3
