Devil Boruta
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.
Devil Boruta (Polish: Diabeł Boruta) is a fictional character from Polish mythology, folklore and literature, associated with the Polish town of Łęczyca.[1]
The character is the transformation of the Slavic demon Boruta in post-Christianization times.
He was usually considered to be a nobleman, and accordingly, he was usually busy with corrupting nobles, leaving other social classes to other devils. Tales that do mention his coat of arms overwhelmingly say it's Nowina -- albeit, with Polish coat of arms being often shared among a number of unrelated families, this did not lay any shame upon its other users.
