Billy Blind

Billy Blind (also known as Billy Blin, Billy Blynde, Billie Blin, or Belly Blin) is an English and Lowland Scottish household spirit, much like a brownie.

He appears only in ballads, where he frequently advises the characters.

[1] It is possible that the character of Billy Blind is a folk memory of the god Woden or Odin from Germanic mythology, in his "more playful aspect" [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] and is speculated to have been the same character as Blind Harie, the "blind man of the game" in Scotland.
