A little bit about Fae / W

The Water Leaper - They prey on Welsh fishermen. (Artist drew it to look somewhat like a toad with bat's wings and a snake-like, barb-ended tail.)

The White Ladies - Many explanations for White Ladies exist. One is that they are the direct descendants of the Tuatha de Danann. Another is that they are merely ghosts. The name "Guinevere" means "white phantom".They may be female Gentry (see entry) or the Tuatha who vanished into the Mists.

Wichtlein - This is a Southern German faerie who announces the death of a miner by tapping three times. Digging and other miner imitations are warning of pending disaster.
The Wee Folk: A. Scotland, Ireland. A name for faeries.
The Wild Hunt: The night hunt by the Sluagh with their terrible hounds. They are said to kidnap humans they encounter during their rides.

Will o' the wisp: No one is quite sure what these distant floating balls of flame are, but they are generally associated with and are sometimes thought of as faeries in the British Isles. A faery who appears at night in lonely places carrying a lantern. It uses this light to cause humans to lose their way.
