The term for a
mythical creature (also usable in plural) that is both part angel and part demon. Taking humanoid form, the Knitz are depicted as both muses and supernatural artists in Leon Calle's underground fantasy
periodical "Gruubernacht."
They most closely resemble benign depictions of succubi from
popular culture.
(taken from
the third issue)
"Bjorn fearfully awaited Feif's
messenger, and as the sun went down, there was still no word of any travelers. As he finally drifted off to sleep, the smell of orange blossoms delicately swept him away to
the realm of madness. The Knitz had arrived."
