Historical Background

Malicious forest spirit from folkore in Brittany, France. They were depicted as only 2 feet tall and always female. They were described as having beautiful hair, but red eyes. They, like many other fairys, often would steal human infants and leave a changeling in their place. Sometimes the term Korrigan is applied to female druids in the area who opposed Christianity when missionaries came to convert Brittany. Other versions had the Korrigan as a female fairy that would seek mortal lovers and wait in the woods near streams for a young man to come by. Korrigan is also the name of a chasm on the Uranian moon Ariel.
