Description Not just any lake monster, but a very specific one. It's name is "Näkki" in finnish folklore, though Näkki and similar creatures are found all around in scandinavian and generally northern folklore. Many creatures are centered around water, and surely one of it's purposes was to scare the children away from dangerous, deep water. Too bad ancient Finns didn't have Witchers!
