Description
House Spirit card #1I am kinda obsessed with house and city spirits. I love the existing lore, and made up a crap ton more since childhood. I never did anything with this information, so voilà, to tumblr the House Spirits go!
Available types are :
Nocturnal or Diurnal (time of day)
Scavenger, Creator, Thief, Other (relationship with your stuff)
Cohabitative, Invisible, Independent, Parasitic (relationship with you)
Benevolent, Malevolent, Neutral (Alignment)

I love the folklore legend way it's written! I knit myself, but this knitter is way better than I!

Oh, wait, this is made up? I thought it was a real legend...

This one is. A few of the spirit cards will be real critters. But this one is made up.

This explains why I have no Knitters. It doesn't like my cats.
I find this sort of thing absolutely fascinating!

Cats are scary when you are 5 inches tall.

Quick question, if I were to make my own house spirit, what does the cohabitive, invisible, independent and parasitic mean?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Cohabitative = shares space with you and uses materials you have discarded.
Invisible = unseen and possibly using the magical space in your home you have not access to.
Independent = Uses physical space you are not using, wants nothing to do with you, won't interact, may react badly to being seen.
Parasitic = will use you, your space, your stuff and you might not notice. Beware.

Holy crap, it's me. Minus the cat thing (kitties!!!).

The cat thing is more because they are small and cats tend to chase them. They don't mind nicer cats.

Nothing. Just having fun with them.

Thanks, it's just that the simplistic bio of the little critter reminded me so much of little things like brownies and other little fae creatures I would've sworn that that the knitter was a real thing in myth XD

I read a lot of folklore and tried to make it seem very believable.

I like it, I'll probably have one of these in my next D&D campaign
