Poleviks are field spirits that appear as Dwarfs with different eye color and grass for hair. They appear at noon or sunset and try to lead people astray. If they succeed they might give them diseases or ride over them with their horses. A Polevik will murder a man who falls asleep after drinking. To pacify a Polevik one must put two eggs, a rooster, a toad, and a crow placed in a ditch while no one is looking.
