Impundulu
A varacious witch's servant (also called a familiar) found in the eastern Cape region of Africa, 
usually owned by a female witch, who passed it on to her daught, a leading reason why the female 
offspring of witches seldom married. The impundulu (plural iimpundulu) appeared to its mistress 
in the form of a handsome young man who then became her lover. Sent out to bring suffering and 
death, it was merciless, relentless, and insatiable. The witch really had no choice but to use it
to kill, as the creature was always hungry for blood, both from human and cattle. To fail in 
satisfying, the impundulu could bring about a terrible death for the owner. Entire families and 
herds were wiped out as the familiar sucked the blood of victims, bringing a wasting disease, 
coughing, and inability to breed (known as iphika), and sudden death. The quick demise was called
being slain by the "bird of heaven," as a sharp, unbearable pain was felt in the chest or head. 
When it was not handed down directly, the impundulu was called an ishologu, an onwerless fiend 
that acted on its own. (similar to Bajang.)

Incubus
A type of male demon, the masculine of the feminine succubus (also see Alp), that visitis women 
during the night to torment them and to have sexual intercourse. Its name is derived from a 
conibination of incubare (to lie upon or weigh down) and incubus (nightmare). It possesses 
attributes similiar to the nightmare and the vampire: nightly visitations, the draining of life 
and strength, extreme sexual disre, and the habit of crushing its victim. Further, like vampires 
found among the Gypsy or Salvic communities, the incubus can father children, such offspring are 
demons, witches, or hideously deformed humans, while the undead often produce dhampirs (see also 
Dhampir), powerful wrriors against the vampire.
