The King of the Loçolico is a demonic figure in Romani folklore. He is the king of the Earth spirits known as the Loçolico and the father of disease and violence in the world.
Biography[]
The king and his fellow Loçolico were transformed into hideous demonic spirits after being cursed by elves. They are so hideous that they live underground away from other creatures, but have been known to venture above the surface on various expeditions. On one such expedition, the king caught sight of Ana, the beautiful queen of the Keshali nymphs, and demanded that she marry him. Ana refused and withdrew to her castle to avoid being abducted, and the king, unable to reach her, rampaged through the Keshali lands with his men devouring all Keshali in his path. Threatened with the complete destruction of her people, Ana submitted and agreed to marry the king in return for her people being left alone.
However, Ana hated her husband and refused to consummate the marriage. Acting on the advice of a mysterious golden toad he had consulted, the king rendered Ana unconscious by mixing magpie brains into her food before raping her while she was unconscious, impregnating her with a son. Due to the abusive nature of the conception and the magpie brains that had been used, the son was born a repulsive, vicious two-headed bird and was named Melalo, meaning Dirty One. Melalo was a vile creature, the cause of all violence and madness in the world who would possess humans and drive them into a frenzy.
As he grew older, Melalo requested that his father find him a bride, suggesting that he conceive a daughter with Ana by boiling a fish in donkey's milk and then dripping the milk into her vagina while she was sleeping. The king obliged and spawned a daughter named Lilyi, a hagfish-like demon with a woman's face responsible for mucus diseases. Melalo took Lilyi as his wife and together they began breeding even more new forms of disease.
The king grew jealous of Melalo's ever-multiplying children and asked how he could have more children with Ana. Melalo advised him to have sex with her after eating the meat of a sea urchin, a stag beetle and a crayfish. The king did so, after which Melalo rendered Ana unconscious and the king raped her. Sure enough, this produced another son: Tçulo, a sea urchin-like demon who torments pregnant women by irritating their insides with his spines, causing cramps and vomiting. However, Tçulo began tormenting the perpetually-pregnant Lilyi, so Melalo persuaded his father to assault Ana again in order to produce a bride to bear the brunt of Tçulo's assaults. The daughter produced was Tçaridyi, a worm demon who crawls into women in childbirth and causes burning fevers.
As Melalo and his siblings continued mating and producing yet more illnesses, the king once again sought to impregnate Ana. At Melalo's advice, he prepared her a soup with a dead mouse and his own saliva, causing the mouse-demon Schilalyi, who causes cold fevers, to grow inside her body. Upon her birth, Schilalyi began assaulting her siblings, so Melalo asked his father to consume a clove of garlic soaked in his own urine before raping Ana yet again, impregnating her with a husband who could occupy Schilalyi. Ana gave birth to Bitoso, a many-headed worm which causes banal complaints such as aches and pains and loss of appetite.
Ana later began trying to sterilize herself in order to avoid giving birth to any more demons, but was manipulated by Melalo into impregnating herself with Lolmischo (skin diseases) and Minceskro (sexual diseases). At this point, her fellow Keshali decided to end her marriage and baked the king a cake containing the hairs of cats and dogs, the body of a rooster and the powdered remains of a snake. This sickened the king, who gave birth to his own child: Poreskoro, a creature with a rooster wings, legs and body, a snake tail, four canine heads and four feline heads which is responsible for all the most tenacious killers of humankind such as cholera and the bubonic plague. Horrified by the sight, the king decided that he had finally had enough and agreed to divorce Ana, but only under some strict conditions. Every Keshali who reached the age of 999 was to be handed over to the Loçolico to be devoured, and should Ana ever die then the Loçolico would resume the campaign of destruction against the Keshali that they had been undertaking at the time of the marriage. Ana retreated to her castle where she remains to this day, prolonging her life by drinking three droplets of blood from her fellow Keshali every day in order to forestall their destruction by the Loçolico.
