Lelembut

Lelembut was one of five broad categories for spirits that the Bavanese people of Bawa used to describe supernatural encounters. It was used particularly to refer to spirits that were possessing the body of another creature. Depending upon the situation, the category could be applied to almost any spirit.

===Background===
The five terms used by Bavanese people to describe spirits are undoubtedly taken from terms used by the Javanese, particularly the Abangan, to refer to different types of spirits. The way each category is described is also noticeably similar to how each is described in the book The Religion of Java by Clifford Geertz. This text was released in 1960, a full twenty-eight years prior to the publication of Kara-Tur: The Eastern Realms. Both texts refer to lelembut as "possessing spirits".
