* **The Witcher** - those Water nymphs or Vila are beautiful female creatures, whom derive from slavonic mythology. Thoughout the series, there are many different water nymphs, but the Lady of the Lake probably is the most impressive and powerful. It's not proven, if she is just a local goddess or maybe more. While those Water Nymphs live near lakes, rivers or ponds, they still have legs and no fish tail. In **The Witcher III - Wild Hunt**, the Witcher also encounters various hostile Sirens, which not only have a fish tail (while looking like women from head down til the belly button), but also wings. Notable is Sh'eenaz, a mermaid from the Witcher Short Story "A Little Sacrifice" from the **Sword of Destiny** collection by Andrzej Sapkowski.

Lamia (in The Witcher) are similar creatures, although described as half woman and half snake.
Skeleton

Skeletons walking about are often used to depict a personification of death, The Grim Reaper being the prime example. Skeletons are often reanimated by necromancers. They are generally only capable of acting on simple instructions. Most use weaponry like swords, clubs and bows, although skeletons with magical capabilities are also found.

## Source

Skeletons have been used heavily in european folklore during the middle ages.

Lich

The lich is a powerful undead creature. A lich is a person who has sacrificed their life, in return for immortality. The soul of the lich is bound to an object known as a phylactery. As long as the object remains intact, the lich can never truly be vanquished. While the rituals could be perfomed on others by a necromancer, most cases paint the lich as magic users themselves. While the state of decay may vary, the lich usually appears as either skeletons or ghosts. While many forms of undeads have little or no intelligence, becomming a lich in turn, increases the potential capabilities of the mind.

## Source

The modern lich, as a powerful undead sorcerer, while made popular by Dungeons & Dragons, can be traced back to short novellas such as Skull-Face from 1929. The word itself is older, but was previously used simply to describe corpses or a general term for the undead.

 Similar creature(s) | [[]]

These witches are far more animal than human and have mostly lost the power of speech. They dwell in marshes, rivers, canals, and ditches, and, unlike human witches, have the ability to cross running water.
"**"Seawater, with its high levels of salt, is toxic for witches. They avoid the seashore and cannot safely walk on sand even when the tide is at its lowest ebb. Even water witches die if immersed in seawater for too long. However, witches can and do make successful sea voyages. To do so, they must stay in the boat's hold as much as possible and dress to shield their skin from the wind and spray. -John Gregory"**,"
