A bored wizard from the 5th Dimension visits our planet and turns all mythological beings real. Depending on your local folk lore, how fucked are you?

I'm Scandinavian. I'd probably wander into a nearby forest and try to make friends with some elves.
>>
Well I'm in the states, so unless you give us Native American myths I guess all we'd get is Bigfoot and Slendermen

I live in Northeastern USA, so as far as i know we have a shitload of ghost living in abandoned houses, bigfoot, demons, windigos, and some sort of demon that loves booze. As long as you carry around hard scotch and a cross you should be good.

What?
>>
>>47510842
A gnome, or, I guess "elf" would be a better term, which lives in your sauna, keeps it clean and working and helps humies occasionally.
If it's happy and content, that is, if it gets pissed, it burns your shit.

>Well I'm in the states, so unless you give us Native American myths I guess all we'd get is Bigfoot and Slendermen
You could pull quite a lot more out of old frontier lore: Paul Bunyan with his giant blue ox, Jersey Devil, Nain Rouge (red dwarf), Mothman.
>>
>>47510889
Besides the burning that actually doesn't sound like a bad deal.
>>
>>47510923
Yeah, it isn't. Old folklore, atleast in Finland, has a lot of spirits or elves which are helpful and friendly if you manage to not piss them off, and that's why people left some food for them.
All important buildings, the sauna, the building of residence, the storehouse and the cowshed had their own elves which helped to keep things in good order aslong as they weren't pissed.
If they got pissed, they burned your shit, summoned demons to fuck your shit, ate your children, ate your food and so on.

>>47510982
Was there an all purpose elf? Why have many elves to take care of your things when you can have one elf to do it?

As far as I know, every elf had it's own area of expertise, so to speak. It might be different in other areas of Finland and Karelia, though, as folklore does often have slight local alterations.
In addition, elves weren't really thought as to be pets or animals, but spirit-beings which have the power to either leave you be or fuck your shit up beyond repair. You didn't get an elf to do things for you, but the elf did things for you aslong as it was happy. It was thought to be a more or less symbiotic relationship between humans and the fey folk.

In addition to elfs, there were also other spiritual beings in Finnish folklore, like the hiisi, which are sometimes evil and malicious and other times neutral beings. A lot of strange looking natural stuff, like glacial erratics, were thought to be their doing-
>>
>>47511174
I never meant like a pet, Anon. I assumed it was you make a deal with an elf and you keep it happy.

Alright, I understand your chain of reasoning, but it isn't like that. The elf just sort of comes to dwell in your buildings when you build them.
Sort of like in Heroes of Might and Magic, really.

Back when I was a kid, my grandmother may she rest in piece told me of some sort of cursed people living underground. They were born out of biblical Eva, somehow, but not of Adam, so they were bastards and thus banished underground, and that's why they're jealous of humans and steal cattle and kids and occasionally burn your shit. Can't remember what she called them, though.

I live in Oregon so Bigfoot, Paul Bunyan and his Ox, and a bunch of Native American shit I guess.

Bigfoot would most likely be like having apes in the woods so meh. Paul Bunyan's a cool guy, probably gonna make our pancake industry skyrocket and take jobs away from logging.
As for the native stuff, there's not much of it here.

We'd also have to deal with the devil in his various guises, whether that be the sharp dressed city slicker, the old blind man in the swamp, or the cowled forest figure.

Then there's all that cryptozoology stuff, aliens and the like, not to mention Native folklore and mythology.

Only the Navajo have skinwalkers, and they're mostly just shapeshifting shamans who are dicks.

>>47516703

Skinwalkers are decidedly human in origin. Native American have other Fair Folk equivalents. Point in fact, the Stonecoats would be some sort of Unseelie. They're a race of shapeshifters or illusionists who appear human, but whose true form is humanoid monster with fangs and overlapping stone plates for skin. They have a variety of abilities, with each individual usually exercising some ability to seek out humans and to control stone. They eat human livers and are very, very clever about how to get at their favorite food.

Rawhead and Bloody Bones is the full name of the skeletal hog. Its name was Rawhead while it was alive, and once it was raised its body was made of bloody bones, thus "Rawhead and Bloody Bones".

Hey, just stay out of the pine woods at dusk, you should be fine. Although... the legends about the Nalusa Falaya are vague about the effect of his "thorn" on people. Usually they just say people marked by the thorn are made to "do evil." This is making me look at the infamous "Florida Man" behavior detailed here: >>47516283 in a new light.

>Oh fuck, I completely forgot about that part. Yeah, and a raccoon's tail and some other shit thrown in there for good measure.

Unfortunately, the legends don't mention any particular way to ward him off. Stay away from swamps, too. Ignis Fatuus lights are supposed to be his children, presumably some sort of larval stage.

And then there are some mythical beings that are not necessarily good or bad, like the Knockers or the Thunderbirds. Cyclone Person was supposed to be a pretty-stand up guy, at least to the Shawnee.

Good question. Although he's often referred to as a shadow, it's unclear if he's an actual shadow or a physical creature that just likes to hide in shadows.

>>47517680

...they aren't? There are still sizable populations of Native Americans throughout the country. Also, OP didn't say the return of the legends was predicated on the people who believed them still being alive.

The Lambton worm is a dragon, or at least the British version. Most British dragons are things called Knuckers, essentially giant aquatic snake/eel monsters. They usually don't breathe fire, instead they spit out poison or breathe poisonous fumes. Their blood is also frequently poisonous, killing if it's absorbed through the skin. They attack by constricting, and can often regenerate from wounds, even re-attaching severed body sections. That's why the knight who killed the Lambton Worm did so in a flowing river while wearing a suit of armor covered in blades: the worm wrapped around him, cutting itself to pieces on the blades (and helped along by his sword) and then the river swept the pieces away so they couldn't rejoin.
>>
>>47517684
The logical thing would to be to test that with a flamethrower on stand by.
>>47517756
Some people think Megalainas are still kicking in the Land Down Under so they probably would become more common. As for the KKK thing I'm not the cross burning type. However a metal cross that shoots out fire would be way cooler.

>>47517756

Abos killed them all while destroying the original environment.

It was grasslands and forests when they first got there. Now it is one large desert with a rain forest in the north coast
>>
>>47517734

In that case we wouldn't be getting many elves or dragons or whatever either. The people who live in those places now don't believe in those things, and haven't for a long, long time.

All OP said was that legends are made real, then asked how screwed we are based on the legends of our local areas. If all legends are made real, including the legends of mythical Native American creatures, those creatures will presumably pop up in their usual haunts, not on the reservation.
>>
>>47517828

Europeans still live in Europe despite the memes anon
>>
>>47517847

Those people have very little in common with the people who once believed in those legendary critters, and they don't believe in them anymore. Hell, even European ethnic groups and cultures have moved around a fair bit since the old days. It's not like their mythical creatures would necessarily pop up where they are, based on your criteria.

Living in Russia, depends.
If we get only national myths and fairytales, our stuff isn't really malicious: we get house elfs just like Finns, some mermaids that will fuck your children up if you let them near water, maybe a forest hobo spirit to confuse you when you're in the forest.
It's the USSR-related shit that's pretty scary. First Lenin will arise from his mausoleum as a wax-lich-thing and try to lead all the old men to overthrow the government, then Stalin will arive from the past using a time machine, murder Lenin in cold blood and re-establish all the stuff he did, etc.etc.
>>
Russia. Our myths and gods have been mostly lost after christianity took over. There is quite a bit of boring shit like domovoi, there are mermaids (without fish parts, by the way, they are simply undead girls that live in the water), I guess there are ghouls or zombies (upyr), there's one lich and one dragon, but nothing exciting overall.

At first there isn't much difference with the rest of western Europe.

Starting from now, it happens every year.
Also we've got a saint's head in our main church so that would be pretty awesome, miraculously curing illnesses and all that. Except if we don't manage to put the head back in the church during the aforementionned yearly celebration (because it's in a super heavy cart and we have to make it climb the town's steepest street), then we would be even more fucked.
There's probably some other stuff happening but that would be the most important.

Also a town not too far from mine is protected by a saint who apparently can turn into a bear so that's pretty awesome.

Possibly, I know the old type of cold iron was the best weapon against fay creatures.

Also, another horror, do we have those evil native dream spirits they made the dream catchers for? Or is that only a midwest thing?

The only plus side to this is that it's an old tradition (in my family at least) that the brew made from boiled red oak bark can protect against most illnesses. Not that I'd go too close to a forest without a ton of protective measures.

I'm still trying to think of things that could work honestly. In general crosses, salt, holy water, some old stories talk about some creatures/spirits being run off by dogs, and if these things ARE like the fay I guess some iron couldn't hurt.

But burning the forest down just seems like it would bring the wrath of all the things that can't be easily killed down on your heads.

I live in pretty far in the woods, but I have a good clearing that my house/yard sits in. So I guess I got that going for me.

>The traditional methods for getting rid of Native American critters tend to involve calling a qualified shaman, assuming it's not something you can just kill with violence. Iron tends not to work.
Shamans it is then.
>>
>>47527852

The thing is, in Native lore different critters usually had different counters. Each individual Stonecoat, for example, had its own separate weakness. Wendigos could be temporarily repelled with menstrual blood (as could some stonecoats) but fire was your best bet for finishing them. Stikini could be killed if you found the tree they hid their organs in, and Raven Mockers could be killed without a shaman if you could just figure out where they were coming from. Other critters, like the Cannibal dwarves, the horned serpents, or the thunderbirds, would just have to be killed the hard way, with weapons. Some of them you could turn against each other, though: thunderbirds and horned serpents hate each other.
>>
>>47527558
>>47527682
The Fae are not of this world and abhor iron because it is considered the essence of this world. When it touches them it binds their energy to the Earth. I would assume any worked metal would do the same, but then again maybe the closer it is to what came out of the ground the better.
Native American spirits are different. While they are not of this earth, like the Fae, they are still of one of the earths. Native American lore says this world is the seventh that was created by the First People as they traveled. I think they continued on, but things tend to try not to go down in levels because the lower you go the closer you get to the black spirits.
Then again I learned all this through novels so I could be wrong, or this could be sourced from one tribe and none of the others have anything like it. In short, *shrug*
>>
>>47527920
Ignorant question, but did the Red Man even have iron?
>>
>>47527978

Well, iron's more traditionally associated with civilization and human advancement, while the Fair Folk are associated with natural forces. That's why it's anathema to them.

In pre-contact native societies, though, iron was in short supply and didn't have those associations. As a result, you usually had to exploit the specific weakness of each natural force, or go to an expert in manipulating natural forces, IE a shaman.
>>
>>47527682
Cold Iron doesn't do shit against most of the Native American stuff. You literally have to have a medicine man, or you are fucked. And for Mississippi, you're probably just fucked. We at least have some Appalachia, so we get some hoodoo. Hell, there's a lot of the Native American monsters and such that you can't even perceive if you don't have medicine, and that you can't do anything against if you don't have strong medicine.

After Europeans showed up, sure. Before that? Not really. They had some metalworking, usually copper or gold, but not much with iron. Obviously what metalworking there was would be more sophisticated in the larger civilizations.

Stonecoats are weird. Each individual one seems to have a unique power and a unique weakness or some kin. All of them can appear human (it's implied to be an illusion, not shapeshifting) and all of them are mostly impervious to harm due to their stony skin (even when appearing human, hence the illusion/glamour implications). The two most famous ones, at least in Cherokee tradition, which is what I'm familiar with, are stone Man and Spearfinger. Spearfinger's right hand was always a closed fist with a single finger sticking out, even in human appearance. She could track humans magically, and when she found them she'd appear as a familiar person, get close (usually in the dark, around the campfire) and stab someone with her finger, leaving a cut so fine it was barely visible, and the person being stabbed didn't notice. She would then extract their liver to eat later, and would be gone before the person keeled over dead. However, her heart was within her clenched fist, and if you could shoot an arrow or something into it, she'd die instantly. Eventually she got caught in a pit trap and warriors shot arrows at her over and over until they got lucky. She also had the ability to fuse stones together to create bridges and arches so she could get around the mountains.

The menstrual blood stuff is hard to explain. A lot of ancient cultures have big taboos about menstrual blood and menstruating women in general: just read Leviticus.. Seeing it made Stone Man weak enough that he could be pinned down to the ground, and then the Cherokee just piled firewood on him and lit it, adding more and more wood until he was dead. Splashing a wendigo with menstrual blood would make it spaz out and start cannibalizing itself, but the effect would wear off over time, and was at best a delaying tactic.
>>
>>47528073

The Stikini appeared human at day, but at night it vomited its organs into a tree and then turned inside out, revealing its true form as a giant ghost owl that would go abroad and suck out people hearts as they slept. If you found the organs in the tree, and shot them with an arrow fletched with owl feathers, the Stikini would die.
>>
>>47525434
Voodoo gods aren't really that bad. Certainly not worse than the Greeks.
>>
>>47528073

Raven Mockers are normally invisible when doing their hunting. If you can penetrate their invisibility, or see them taking on their spirit-form, it spiritually weakens them and they'll die within a week. The traditional Cherokee defense was to hire a shaman to sit up all night with a likely Raven Mocker victim (usually the sick, the elderly, or children) and the shaman would use his or her second sight to spot the Raven Mocker and kill it, or even just ward the Raven Mocker off because it sees the shaman first and flees.

Ehhhh, depend on how you want to define the Middle/near east. I think most geographers/sociologists these days prefer to have Middle East , Central Asia, and then East Asia. India is south Asian, the subcontinent. It's pretty far from what's usually defined as the Middle East, even though it does border countries and regions that are predominantly Muslim. However Muslim =/= Middle East.

Wendigos, I think, are the scariest of the Native American critters, because they're the only ones that really contain the potential for a zombie/vampire style apocalypse scenario. Although even if that happened, it would be climate locked: they can't go too far from the arctic.
>>
>>47528501
>So that's when the fire comes in?

Ideally. The big problem with wendigos is that they're smart, very strong, and the older ones can conjure blizzards. In other words, you can't just set them on fire: you have to KEEP them on fire until their heart of solid ice melts. That means finding a way to disable or restrain one and keep it in the center of a goddamn bonfire until it's nothing but ash.

Well, unless you get one really early, when it's just beginning to change. they the traditional solution is an axe to the back of a skull, though that's usually also followed by cremation. There's also certain rituals and tactics to try and delay or stop the transformation.

Shamans were called in for two parts of the wendigo shitstorm: to stop it from happening if possible, and to kill the wendigo if all else failed.

The first step only worked if you recognized the signs of someone recently possessed by a wendigo spirit. Increased hunger. Signs of starvation, despite a regular diet. Eating snow. Complaining of chills in the chest. This meant ice was building up around the person's heart. The only solution was to try and thaw it, so you gave them lots of water and alcohol to drink, while keeping them near a roaring fire at all times. The shaman usually also gave them medicine bundle of some kind to wear around their necks. Sometimes it was safer to kill the person right then and there.

If the change could not be prevented, and the wendigo could not be killed immediately and escaped to become a mature wendigo that the warriors could not successfully kill, the shaman was called in again. The shaman would attempt to "throw the wendigo spirit into the sky." One method involved summoning a whirlwind to carry the wendigo spirit off. Another version involved baiting the wendigo to pursue the shaman into a hut, and then having the shaman's bear-spirit helper leap up from below, knocking the wendigo spirit into the sky. It's worth noting that this method carries off the possessing SPIRIT, not the wendigo itself. Though the accounts are less specific, this is generally thought to mean the wendigo would grow sick and die over time without the spirit. In the meantime, though, the shaman would still be stuck dealing with the physical monster. So, not exactly an ideal solution.

There's also at least one story where a shaman empowered a single warrior until he was strong enough to wrestle with a wendigo (in a battle that levelled a number of trees) and then throw the wendigo onto a bonfire and pin it there. Though for the elder wendigos, the ones that had grown to 30+ feet, I'm guessing that would be insufficient.
>>

Why do they grow as they get older? I don't understand that.
>>
>>47512896

Muzzies would need to keep their buttholes tight
>>
>>47528842

Their eternal hunger. Every time a wendigo eats something it grows a little bigger, and as a result its stomach also grows a little bigger, meaning it is never full. Wendigos are always hungry as a result. They don't grow as they age, they grow as a result of how much they eat.

A wendigo in the 20-30 foot range has probably eaten entire villages of people.
>>
>>47528888
Thanks, Khorne. An Elder Wendigo is going to be one that's huge right?
>>
>>47528921

Yup. I'm just calling them that for convenience, though: the older they are, the more people they've probably been able to eat. Presumably one that just got lucky and managed to eat a whole bunch of people in a short time could get just as big, though.
