Pooka (World Of Darkness)

The Pooka as characterized by White Wolf is a trickster animal spirit. Like each of the other kiths pooka's have special advantages and disadvantages. The advantage being the ability to turn into a specific animal when no one is watching, and the disadvantage being the inability to make any true statement. Because they are tricksters by nature, and can't tell the truth they are generally thought of as being immature and untrustworthy. Pooka originally appear in Celtic mythology where they usually take the form of a friendly and playful horse. If one is foolish enough to mount the Pooka in its form of a horse, they will be taken on a swift and dangerous ride which generally ends with them being dumped unceremoniously in a swamp. More recently a Pooka is also featured in the 1950 film "Harvey"
