Tuurngait

Some spirits were by nature unconnected to physical bodies. These figures were called tuurngait (singular tuurngaq) and were regarded as evil and monstruous, responsible for bad hunts and broken tools. They could also possess humans, as recounted in the story of Atanarjuat. The angakkuq could fight or exorcise them, or they could be held at bay by rituals; but they could also be caught and enslaved by an angakkuq, who could then turn them against free tuurngait.

Tuurngaq has, with Christianisation, taken on the additional meaning of demon in the Christian belief system.




Anyone remember the inuit mytholigy book from Overture?

Ghost? There better not be ghost in this game.

Edited accordingly. Interesting that, actually. Woo, Grey the demon

Wonder what they meant exactly by "hostile local fauna". Damn those plants!

Plants are flora
