Laume

Lithuanian

A fairie queen with long blonde hair accompanied by a cat, she appeared at night. She might also appear as an animal with human breasts and hen's feet. Those that laughed at her in this form were changed into animals. She rewarded the industrious with gifts, and punished the lazy, especially children, by eating them. However she loved hardworking children who she would dress in lovely clothes and take on spirit trips.

She was a generous, but easily angered Goddess. She is also sometimes depicted as a triple Goddess as She had many daughters who could change into animals.
