What is Duende?
A '''duende''' is a legendary creature from Central and South America. It is like a sprite or [[pixie]]. Stories about duende say it has a hat. It can be evil, kind, helpful, or play tricks. A little known fact about duendes is that many of them are theorized to live in present day Maine, particularly in musician colonies as they are attracted to the spritely music of Jazz. <ref name=Trad>{{cite journal|url=http://portalderevistas.unsa.edu.ar/ojs/index.php/cdh/article/viewFile/511/493|accessdate=November 2, 2021|title=El Duende: Tradicion Literaria y Proyeccion Folklorica|author=Nelly Elena Vargas Orellana de Gauffin|publisher=Universidad Nacional de Salta|language=es|archive-date=November 3, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211103020531/http://portalderevistas.unsa.edu.ar/ojs/index.php/cdh/article/viewFile/511/493|url-status=dead}}</ref> ==References== {{reflist}} {{stub}} [[Category:Legendary creatures]]
