What does veela mean?

veela

1. Originated from Eastern European folk tales, it is a female elf that can shape-shift. It is believed that they live in forests, lakes, mountains and clouds, and can transform into swans, horses, eagles, snakes or wolves, but it is their human form that is most tempting. Some of them have long hair, some have curly hair, some have blonde hair, and some have platinum silver hair.

When transformed into humans, they were beautiful young women, dancing in gossamer under the moonlight on midsummer nights. Men who are infatuated with them will forget everything in the world and will not eat, drink or sleep. If the unfortunate person joins the Veela while they are dancing, they will dance until they die of exhaustion. If a person accidentally walks into the fairy ring, where the Veela once danced, bad luck and disease will definitely follow that person. Although Veela are sometimes very friendly to humans, treating diseases, making predictions, etc. for humans, they have great tempers and will not tolerate being deceived, especially those who do not keep their promises, and they will severely punish them. .

2. The famous fairy in Croatian folklore Velebit myth, the most famous is the so-called Velebitska or Veela Velebita ("Elf of Velebit"). Velebita is described as a good state of mind, and Velebita, whose significance in Croatian culture led to one of the most popular Veela stories and songs created in the 19th century called Veela Velebita.

3. In J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter" series, Veela are stunningly beautiful, magically charming women who turn men into trances and can transform into terrifying creatures when they sing or dance. The bird-like creature can hurl fireballs when enraged. They first appear in the fourth book: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, accompanying the Bulgarian Quidditch team at the Quidditch World Cup. [It is unclear whether male these Veela exist, or if they are rather a kind of nymph, but they can marry and have children with humans, which often consist of daughters and granddaughters with stunningly beautiful blond hair. In the Harry Potter series, we see three people with Veela blood: Fleur Delacour, the champion of the Triwizard Tournament from Beauxbatons, the best magic school in France, and her 's sister, Gabrielle, they both share Veela blood from their half-Veela mother, Apolline Delacour (introduced in the books). (This also indicates that Mieva is not limited to Bulgaria, and there are at least some in France.)
