The Red Man
The Far Darrig, sometimes called the Red Man, is a close cousin of the leprechaun. He has a squat, stocky body and a splotchy yellow face, but he is most recognizable by his completely red outfit, from cape to stockings. Mischievous and a nasty practical joker, the Red Man delights in confusing people by throwing his voice or sending bad dreams, finding great amusement in the terror of mortals. Despite how frightening the pranks might become, being teased by a Red Man is actually a blessing, and he bestows good luck on those he tests with his mischief.
