These are nocturnal goblins, small and mischievous, with goat legs, a horn, a long beard, and a red pointed hat. They live in houses and forests, hiding keys, breaking dishes, and scaring animals. If a window closes on its own or a strange noise is heard at dawn, the explanation is simple: cousa de trasnos (thing of goblins). They can only count to ten (or up to a hundred, depending on the version). A traditional way to get rid of them is to leave a plate full of lentils or beans; the trasno will try to count them one by one, but because they have a hole in their left hand, the grains fall, and they have to start over until they abandon the house in frustration. They are not malicious, but their pranks and constant presence make them central characters in Galician folklore.
