L = LEPRECHAUN

The definition that I found about a leprechaun is they are a type of fairy in Irish folklore, usually taking the form of an old man, clad in a red or green coat, who enjoys partaking in mischief. Usually they are about the size of a small child, with a beard and hat.

I’ve heard many stories about them making shoes, or their pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but the story I like best is that if you ever capture them they have magical power to grant you three wishes. That is if you release them. I’m not sure that I would ever trust one of these cute little creatures.
