Description:Ashina: Ashina is a powerful witch who eats her own children. Eventually her husband leaves her because of this practice. She leaves one daughter uneaten so that she can eat her grandchildren. Eventually her son in law gets fed up with this. The community where Ashina lives gathers together to devise a way to kill her. They set a mud trap for her. When she falls into the mud trap, she turns into an armadillo. Her daughter flies up into heaven. Her diabolical experiments in her house, which included breeding mosquitos have no one to tend over them and they are spread all around the world.
Mabocorihua: Mabocorihua fights off some cultures by covering his body with almond oil.
The moon woman: The moon woman puts dirt in people’s penises and vaginas when they practice adultery. The dirt is removed when they return to their respective wives and husbands. People who try to have sex with the moon women are killed by the tibiri bird, after which they are brought back to life as dwarves and harassed by vultures for all of eternity.
