Bokwus

A fearsome spirit in the great North Western American forests of spruce, larch and fir. Although his evil, aquiline face with totemic war paint is only glimpsed as he peeps quickly behind the trunk of a tree, Native American elders are very conscious of his presence. He is most dangerous on the tree lined edges of rivers, as he will push fishermen off the banks into the water here. After this, he takes the soul of the drowned person to his home in the forest. What he does with him there is uncertain.
