The Dama Dagenda are jungle spirits in Papa New Guinea. They attack all travelers through their jungle, inflicting terrible sores and ulcers. The only way to avoid their attacks is to talk or sing in a language that they do not know as you pass through their land. They waste time in trying to understand what you are saying, and if you move quickly you may escape. Unfortunately they know all local languages of their area.

An ever worse threat to be found in Papa New Guinea is the Kilyakai, forest demons who like spriggans steal human babies and then corrupt them with demon energies. In addition they steal livestock, and cause many sicknesses and diseases such as malaria, by firing poisoned arrows at unwary travelers. In appearance kilyakai look like small, wizened, old tribesmen.
