Lempo is a sort of goblin from Finnish folklore and mythology, who appears in the Kalevala. Lempo is a demon, as are Hiisi, Piru, and Jutas ; together, they sought to slay Väinämöinen. He may also be Lemminkäinen's bad side.

Oddly, Lempo the evil goblin was also the ancient Finnish god of love. This would explain a great many things.
