Aralez (Aralezner)

Aralez (Aralezner in plural) are ancient Armenian dog-like spirit-beings traditionally credited with resurrecting fallen warriors by licking their wounds. Described in source material as part of the older strata of Armenian sacred imagination, they occupy a liminal role between animals, spirits, and ancient gods.

Nhang (Water Dragon)

Nhang, glossed in English as the "Water Dragon," is cited in English-language overviews as a water-associated monstrous figure within Armenian mythic tradition. The available sources note its classification only as a water-dragon label; no detailed native accounts, descriptions, or ritual material are provided in the supplied material.

Vishap

The vishap (Armenian՝ վիշապ) is a draconic, water-associated being in Armenian tradition tied to mountains, storms, and fertility. It is depicted as a winged serpent or composite dragon that causes storms, whirlwinds, eclipses and is antagonized by the culture-hero Vahagn; it also appears in ritual and poetic contexts as a symbol of water, wealth and ambiguous power.

Hawkeye

Hawkeye is a polyvalent English-language cultural label applied to multiple non-supernatural referents including literary and comic-book characters (notably Natty Bumppo and Marvel's Clint Barton and Kate Bishop), regional nicknames and place-names in the United States (e.g., Iowa, 'Hawkeye State'), and various commercial or artistic uses. The supplied sources treat Hawkeye as a modern/pop-cultural name rather than a spirit or mythic being.

Hawkeye Collins and Amy Adams

A paired duo of fictional twelve-year-old child detectives who appear as protagonists in the children's puzzle-mystery book series Can You Solve the Mystery? (originally published 1983–1985) credited to the pseudonym M. Masters.

Hawkgirl (Kendra Saunders)

Kendra Saunders is a DC Comics character who assumes the mantle Hawkgirl within the Hawk legacy.

Haya

Haya is attested as a theonym in ancient Mesopotamian religion. Some modern scholars have characterized Haya as a grain or agricultural deity on etymological grounds, a reading that other scholars treat as tentative or unreliable given the limited evidence.

Hayagrīva

Hayagrīva (Sanskrit: हयग्रीव, IAST hayagrīva, lit. 'horse-necked one') is an avatāra of the Hindu preserver deity Viṣṇu, depicted with a human body and a horse head. In Vaishnava traditions he is chiefly venerated as the divine patron and restorer of sacred knowledge (the Vedas) and as a bestower of learning and intelligence; in some epic passages he also appears in a martial, cosmic form to vanquish demonic forces.

Haymon

A giant from Germanic folklore associated with the founding of Stift Wilten, a premonstratensian abbey. (Note: 1.

Hayyi Rabbi

Hayyi Rabbi (Hiia Rbia, "The Great Life") is the supreme, singular divine Principle in Mandaean religion — the First Life and ultimate source of the Worlds of Light from which emanations, souls, and salvific guidance proceed. In Mandaean cosmology Hayyi is transcendent yet the origin of the Great Mana (over-soul) and presides as sovereign over lesser emanations who may act under delegation (e.g., Ptahil) in the formation of the material world.

Haʼ Kʼin Xook

Haʼ Kʼin Xook was an historical ajaw (ruler) of Piedras Negras in the Classic Maya period who reigned from 14 February 767 AD to 24 March 780 AD. He is known from monument inscriptions and stelae (noted for an accession monument and an image of the king dispersing incense) and is treated in the sources as a political-ritual figure rather than a supernatural being.

Haṃsa (Hamsa)

The haṃsa is a paradigmatic aquatic migratory bird in South Asian religious and philosophical literature, functioning both as an observed Anatidae-like bird (variously rendered as swan, goose, or flamingo) and as a metaphysical symbol of the soul, discriminative awareness, and liberation (moksha). It appears across Vedic hymns, Buddhist Jataka tales, Puranic and later Hindu iconography as a sacred, white bird and as the vahana (vehicle) of several deities.
