Brounies are not Cookies by Pa Baker
The Brounie. Brownie. Brunaidh, Uruisg, or Gruagach. Ancient texts have many names for these most enigmatic and mysterious of Fae folk.
It is said a Brounie resembles a small hooded man with a large nose and wrinkly skin. It's eyes are large and blue, and its fingers long and slender.
Brounies love to aid in tasks around the house or orchards when given little offerings of food which the folk of Quill leave in large copper or clay bowls outside their homes.
Brounies do not like to be seen by normal humans but may show themselves to special ones.
If no offering is given, then Brounies can show a bad temper and cause trouble, so it is best to put something in your bowl daily.
If the bowl is red, you are jinxed! There are 6 types of jinx and they stack daily, so making an offering will reduce that jinx tier by one.
So don't forget to offer, or get your spouse and kids to do it for you.
