Question
The unusual prominence of kettles in tales of these creatures is exemplified by accounts of them being carried, falling out of these creatures’ burned corpses, or moving upon their arrival. In a common motif, children defeat these creatures by becoming one of them, only to transform back by drinking boiled tallow. Four fangs pierce a trapper’s neck in a “goblin” story recounted by Theodore Roosevelt and titled for these creatures. The association of owls with these creatures may explain why their names are spelled similarly across various languages. The arrival of these lipless creatures is preceded by (*) blizzards, and they can be killed when icy hearts melt. Jack Fiddler was arrested for killing individuals possessed by these spirits, whose victims like Swift Runner allegedly suffered from their namesake “psychosis.” For 10 points, a gaunt, emaciated form characterizes what cannibalistic spirit from Algonquin lore? ■END■
