Impundulu

Location/origin:
South Africa

Traits:
An incubus in the form of a large white bird resembling lightning. But more dangerously, an Impundulu can also take the form of an attractive man, capable of irresistible seduction.

Notes:
Often a witch’s servant, this creature is devastating unless fed well with blood and controlled by sex. It revels in blood and pain, and worryingly is often passed across generations, perpetuating its bloodline. Worse, an ownerless Impundulu can spread chaos, disease and infertility. Surprisingly – and thankfully – there are said to be scant few left in this world, if any at all.
