[Oh oops, but he's still far from the tree-armed punk he had to possess his younger self to attempt to smack down. All's the better...]

You research into these oddities? Please let me know the next time that you decide to. There seems to be quite a great deal to investigate as far as the lore behind these creatures goes... and that doesn't even extend into the mythology of earlier people who no doubt elevated them as gods or spirits of various sorts.

Perhaps one could say such things are a hobby of mine. I would be quite pleased to be kept abreast of any details that you do find, or if we are in the same area to observe or assist with any other such delvings.
