The Dokkaebi are legendary creatures present in Korean mythology. Notably described as having supernatural abilities used to interact with humans. They often play tricks on or help humans and are described to be "impish" or goblin-like. They possess an "awe-inspiring" or "fearful" appearance as well as the ownership of indescribably magical objects. Are there any parallels of creatures that fit these descriptions in Buddhism?
