Nixsters Myth in The Sagas | World Anvil

Nixsters

Listen here boy, you should always remember never to trust a Nixster for they are trickster. It even rhymes so you know that it is true. - Parent to Child

Summary

Nixsters are small humanoid creatures that are known for their mischievous nature. They are said to be about two feet tall and have large noses. The droopy hat can also identify them on their bald head. Whenever a Nixster is around, some sort of prank will occur because of them. These pranks can be as simple as pouring a bucket of water on someone to set their pants on fire. It is not uncommon for someone to die from a Nixsters prank as they never know when to stop, and as long as they get a laugh out of it, they are okay with it.   A Nixster will become common when someone near them is doing pranks, and they will decide to join in on the fun. A Nixster will never leave and will continue to prank those around them until someone decides to get rid of the. There are only two to get rid of a Nixster, the first one is to pull a prank on them, and once it’s done on them, they will run away from embarrassment. The other way is to remove its hat, revealing its bald head, which is very sensitive about people looking at it. However, it is often difficult to do this method as Nixsters are cunning creatures that are hard to get the drop on.
