 | | The Vila, or Willi or Veela, are the Slavic versions of nymphs, who have power over storms, which they delight in sending down on lonely travelers. |
 | | They are known to live in meadows, ponds, oceans, trees, and clouds (see Leimoniads, Limnades, Oceanids, Dryads and Nephelads). |
 | | They can appear as swans, horses, wolves, or, of course, beautiful women. |
