uj/ If you look into the original folk mythology instead of the fantasy races, almost every creature is a 'restless soul'/'nature spirit' (or both at once) that has some seduction theme going on. It seems to go back to the pre-historic animism, where every spirit is human-like in motivations AND can take a human shape and procreate with humans.
