 {{wikipedia|Draugr}}
-The draugr (Old Norse, plural "draugar"), or draug in modern spellings, is an undead creature from the Scandinavian saga literature and folktales: the term has also been extended by commentators to refer to the undead in medieval literature, even if never explicitly referred to as such in the text; the latter type of undead is designated as a ''haugbúi'' ("barrow-dweller") or an ''aptrganga'' (Icelandic ''afturganga'', literally "again-walker"). Draugar are said to live in their graves or royal palaces, often guarding treasures in their burial mound. They are a form of revenant, or animated corpse, and are referred to as "barrow-wights" in the 1869 translation of Grettis saga, long before [[J. R. R. Tolkien]] employed this term in his novels; "barrow-wight" is actually a rendering of ''haugbúinn'' (literally 'howe-dweller'), otherwise translated as "barrow-dweller".

-Draugar usually possessed superhuman strength and were hideous to look at, with a necrotic black or blue color and a "reek of decay" that originated either from them or from the haunts that they inhabited. They were greedy and possessed an immense and nearly insatiable appetite, and would attack shepherds and livestock; draugar were also innately envious of the living due to a longing for the possessions of their former life, which led them to viciously attack would-be grave-robbers. Unlike the draugr of EvilHack, folkloric draugar are also noted to have numerous magical abilities, such as shape-shifting, controlling the weather, and seeing into the future; some could enter the dreams of others, lay curses upon victims or sink into the ground, while others were even immune to weaponry with the exception of iron.
+Draugar usually possessed superhuman strength and were hideous to look at, with a necrotic black or blue color and a "reek of decay" that originated either from them or from the haunts that they inhabited. They were greedy and possessed an immense and nearly insatiable appetite, and would attack shepherds and livestock; draugar were also innately envious of the living due to a longing for the possessions of their former life, which led them to viciously attack would-be grave-robbers. Unlike the draugr of EvilHack, folkloric draugar are also noted to have numerous magical abilities, such as shape-shifting, controlling the weather, and seeing into the future; some could enter the dreams of others, lay curses upon victims or sink into the ground, while others were even immune to weaponry unless it was made of iron.
-Traditions assert that any mean, nasty or greedy person can become a draugr, as well as any person killed by one - a corpse found standing upright or in a sitting position was likely to return as a draugr; breaking this posture was a necessary step in permanently getting rid of a draugr (though this carried the risk of being inflicted with the evil eye), and decapitation was a recurring method of preventing further hauntings. The draug of more recent Scandinavian folklore is portrayed as a supernatural being that occurs in legends along the fishing-heavy coasts of Norway, and was often the ghost of a dead fisherman who had drifted at sea and had not been buried in Christian soil. This draug wears a leather jacket or oilskin clothes, but has a seaweed vase for a head, and sailed in a half-boat with blocked sails that acted as a death omen for those who saw him.
