The Myling.

The name is a warning. The meaning is disputed.

Record overview

Myling is a name used in Haven's exorcist accounts for a disturbing entity associated with a child's violent death. The term is interpreted in two unsettling ways: a child who has been murdered, or one who goes around murdering. The difference is not always clear at first encounter.

A documented manifestation appears unnaturally tall and thin, with a goat-like bearing, a small doll-like head, charred or blackened skin, and pale white eyes. Witness descriptions also report an oppressive heat. These are observations of a specific encounter, not proof that every Myling must look the same.

Field observations

• Do not mistake its slight frame or childlike features for harmlessness.
• Scorched fingertips and blackened skin may provide clues about the death connected with an encounter.
• Its full nature, identity, and the outcome of a recorded confrontation remain restricted.
