Creature #13: Neugle

The Neugle is a water horse who is a native of the Shetland Islands in the far north-east of Scottish waters. He lives in Njugals Water and has a green mane and a wheel-like tail curling over his back. Sometimes he shows up with a saddle upon his back, tempting travellers to take a ride, but it they do he immediately plunges into the water. As he goes under the waters, they sparkle with blue flame. Neugles are exceedingly partial to the waterwheels of mills and try to stop them turning, perhaps seeing them as rivals in the water-disturbance department.
