#Local Legend

[incorrectfatui]

So genuine question- I just started doing the local legends, and I was wondering what team you guys use to beat them?

Because like- my team for Abyss is just Scara and Raiden National, and my overworld team is just my fav characters.

But for the local legends I keep going back to one of my first Mains (Xinyan) and just playing her with Qiqi and 4p Noblesse Diona and Bennett - and like, it works, my Xinyan is a god, but it feels so cheap to just use 3 healers and a DPS who can shield LMAO

🟢 The Greenbelt Leprechaun: Austin’s Strangest Urban Legend, Explained

Deep in the Barton Creek Greenbelt in Austin, Texas, there’s a legend locals whisper about—but rarely document. They call him The Greenbelt Leprechaun, and his story is equal parts eerie, hilarious, and totally Austin.

🌿 Who is the Greenbelt Leprechaun?

First reported in the early 1990s, the Greenbelt Leprechaun is described as a short, wiry, possibly bandaged figure seen wandering the wooded trails of Barton Creek. Some witnesses say he wears ragged green clothing. Others say he’s wrapped in mysterious cloth or even medical gauze.

There are rumors—half-jokes, half-serious—that he suffers from leprosy, time travel side effects, or just a deep commitment to weirdness.

He’s been called:

• “The Hurt Elf” (by a child witness)

• “The Possum King’s Cousin”

• “Austin’s Patron Saint of Unchecked Vibes”

Some claim he mutters to himself. One jogger said he asked, “What year is it?” before vanishing into a limestone crevice. Others say he’s part of a larger pattern of Austin strangeness—a walking embodiment of the city’s offbeat spirit.

📍 Location of Sightings

The majority of sightings are centered around the Barton Creek Greenbelt: a lush, winding natural area in Austin beloved by hikers, trail runners, and the spiritually unhinged.

🧠 Origin of the Legend

The earliest stories date back to the ’90s, though it’s unclear whether this began as a prank, a psychotic break, or a spiritual awakening. Some say it was a man who simply stayed in the woods too long. Others believe the leprechaun is interdimensional—or a folk hero for the overcaffeinated.

🔥 Why It Matters

In an age of clickbait and sanitized myth, the Greenbelt Leprechaun endures as a true DIY urban legend. He’s never gone viral, but he’s always there. Bandaged. Lurking. Possibly radiating marijuana smoke.

👀 Have You Seen Him?

If you’ve encountered the Greenbelt Leprechaun—or become him—reach out. Or don’t. He’ll know.

Found a legend/folk story maybe doing research about this danish woman named Fanny Enge, nicknamed Virgin Fanny (Jomfru Fanny in danish), who apparently was a very gifted divinator in like the 19th century and who had visions about the conflicts between Denmark and Germany and apparently she was very good at it because the townspeople loved her dearly. She died in 1881 and some of her visions came true posthumously.

My hometown lost a local legend today

Imro van Hetten (67) from Suriname pursued a career in Thai boxing in the 70s, fought and the Netherlands where he owned the champion title of Noord Holland. He then went on to pursue a career as Italo Disco DJ in the 80s under the name Android during which he composed the track Skydancer

Unfortunately, during he career as a DJ, he got addicted to cocaine and ended up in the psychiatry. He became homeless and became well known in Utrecht. During the 2000s, he went viral when a video of him surfaced the web where he as a homeless person would tell strangers in Utrecht about how he was a UFO pilot.

That's initially how I found out about him in the first place, the fact that he had such a fascinating backstory blew my mind and is in somewhat inspiring to me.

Rest in Paradise, Imro! Wishing you beautiful UFO flights in "Het Derde Dal Universum" <3
