Kikituk

A kikituk is an Inuit shamanic animal effigy or carving that is invested with spirit-force by a shaman and used as a spiritual weapon; the shaman brings the effigy to life, casts it toward a target where it is said to destroy the opponent's heart, and then retrieves it.

Nanook is the Inuit name applied to the polar bear and, in Inuit religious descriptions, the spiritual master associated with bears who regulates human–bear relations, deciding whether hunters deserve success and punishing violations of hunting taboos.

Nerrivik

Nerrivik (also Nerivik) is an Inuit sea-mother figure—an elder female supernatural who is the owner/provider of sea creatures and the patron of fishermen and hunters. She appears in Greenlandic and Canadian Inuit traditions as a principal sea goddess (regional equivalents include Sedna, Arnapkapfaaluk, and Arnakuagsak). Her origin myths explain her residence at the bottom of the sea and a mutilated condition (one-handed) resulting from being cast off a boat.

Pinga

Pinga is an Inuit goddess associated with the hunt, the well‑being of animals (especially caribou in Caribou Inuit contexts), and with medicine. She is described in modern summaries as sky‑associated — often rendered 'She Who is On High' — and functions as an overseer of ethical hunting practice whose disposition can influence hunting success.

Their worldview combines Catholic practice with indigenous shamanic practices, is deeply embedded in forest-based subsistence (healing, farming, fishing, hunting), and preserves specialist esoteric registers and ritual knowledge within community life.

Kidōmaru

Kidōmaru (鬼童丸 / 鬼同丸) is an oni-class antagonist appearing in Kamakura-period and later Japanese setsuwa and warrior-cycle narratives. He functions as a cunning ambusher and bandit opposite Minamoto no Yorimitsu and his retainers in tales that place him in mountain caves, fields, and occasional domestic intrusions.

Kikimora

A female house spirit in Slavic folklore that functions as a domestic agent: helpful in well-kept homes and disruptive or dangerous where household morals or order fail.
