In Germanic folklore, the Windsbraut is a type of felgeist that is the spirit of the whirlwind. The name translates as "wind's bride," and though they are traditionally female, they can occasionally be male. They are said to steal the earnings of farmers, but can be turned away by throwing a knife into the whirlwind.
The Windsbraut was the subject of a 1914 painting by Austrian artist Oskar Kokoschka, though the piece is largely metaphorical and is largely unrelated to the feldgeist.
