Tilberi, Museum of Icelandic Sorcery and Witchcraft ~ Höfðagata 14, 510 Hólmavík, Iceland
When the creature gets big enough the "mother" orders him to steal milk from other farmers. He then runs out and moves very fast over the fields and steals milk from sheep and cows and delivers it into the "mother's" churn. The "mother" then makes butter out of it, so called tilberasmjör. If the sign smjörhnútur (butterknot) is carved on butter made from this milk, it will fall into little pieces.
When the "mother" gets older the tilberi becomes too big a burden for her and she can no longer tolerate his sucking of the thigh nipple.
She then has to order him to gather all the lamb droppings in three counties. This will cause the tilberi to burst of exhaustion, because he cannot constrain himself and is constantly in a hurry to get back to his nipple. The other way to exterminate it is to shoot it with a silver button marked with the butterknot.
