Russian Fairy Tales

Ovinnik


This Russian Monster is a fiery dwarf which also appears as a hawk and which can turn himself into a whirlwind and bring disaster to people. To stave it off people would throw a knife into whirlwinds in order to try to kill it or would bow down to prevent the misfortune and illness it might bring.
