Ti Malice and Bouki

Ti Malice is a trickster character and nemesis of Tonton (Uncle) Bouki in Haitian folklore. While Ti Malice is smart and guileful, Uncle Bouki is hardworking but is also very greedy. It is the manipulation of this greed that allows Ti Malice to often get the best Uncle Bouqui. These characters are said to be a split of Anansi, the trickster character of the Ashanti of Ghana.
