Legend[]

Keukegen appear as a mass of long, dirty hair, making their homes in cool, damp and dark places, particularly around abandoned homes and under floorboards. They are shy creatures and try to avoid human contact. Being minor spirits of disease, bad luck and pestilence, they bring sickness to whoever lives near them. However they are easy to avoid, as they keep away from clean houses. Their name is a pun, where it is written with characters meaning "A hairy, fluffy sight" but can also be written with characters meaning "rare and dubious".[2]
