Bloody Mary
A mirror-associated apparition invoked by chanting a female name in dim or candlelit conditions. Originating in catoptromantic divination practices, the figure functions in modern youth-lore and urban legend as an ambiguous ghost/witch who may reveal future information or enact violent harm on participants.
Cloak and Dagger
Primarily an English idiom meaning situations of intrigue, secrecy, espionage, or mystery, and the proper name of multiple modern cultural properties — most prominently a Marvel Comics superhero duo. The phrase functions as a title across media (music, film, radio, television, video games, comics) rather than a traditional folkloric supernatural being.
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.
Heavenly Executioner Chiwoo
Heavenly Executioner Chiwoo is a fictional human protagonist of a Korean manhwa (comic) series titled 치우천하, presented as an action-fantasy story set in an imagined ancient-Korean milieu. The character is a streetwise youth who discovers his father was a mangnani (executioner) and adopts that stigmatized social role amid imperial persecution of executioners; the series is partly inspired by legends of the mythic figure Chiyou but treats Chiwoo as a literary/fictional character rather than a pre-modern supernatural being.
Mṛtyu
Personification of death in Hindu tradition, often associated with Mara and Yama. (Note: - Power tier: Primordial may be an overestimation; although Mṛtyu is associated with deities like Mara and Yama, its specific role as personification of death implies a more local or regional power le)
Mẫu Thượng Ngàn
Ruler of the Forest Palace among the spirits of the Four Palaces in Vietnamese indigenous religion. (Note: - Power tier should be Greater (powerful regional), not Primordial (cosmic). - Appearance is missing from the source material. - Abilities could be more specific and detailed based on her role as rule)
Mụ bà (Mười hai Bà mụ)
A collective of twelve female tutelary figures in Vietnamese folk religion who act as midwives and household guardians of newborns, responsible for teaching infants early life skills and auspicious traits. They are ritually acknowledged in some regions at a special ceremony when a baby is one month old.
Na Tuk Kong (Datuk/Datuk Gong)
Na Tuk Kong, commonly called Datuk or Datuk Gong, are place-bound guardian spirits venerated in parts of the Malay Peninsula and nearby areas. Practised mainly among overseas Chinese communities in Malaysia and Singapore, the cult blends Malay animistic/keramat practices with Chinese folk-religious forms and honours individual local guardian presences tied to particular features of landscape or neighbourhood.
Naale Baa
Naale Baa (Kannada: ನಾಳೆ ಬಾ, Nāḷe Bā, lit. 'Come Tomorrow') is a vernacular Karnataka urban and rural legend about a night-roaming malevolent spirit or witch that approaches houses, often calling at doors in the voices of kin to lure occupants outside. The principal popular preventive measure is to write the phrase "Naale Baa" on doors and walls so the being will allegedly read it and defer its visit.
Naamah
Naamah is a name attested in the Hebrew Bible for several mortal women and later reworked in Jewish mystical and folkloric literature as a feminine supernatural figure associated in Zoharic material with the archangel Samael and with erotic/nocturnal motifs; in some later traditions she is linked with unions to angelic or fallen figures that produce classes of spirits (shedim/sedim).
Nabataean Religion
Ancient Arabian polytheistic tradition with aniconic worship practices, centered around multiple local gods and deities. (Note: 1. Power tier should be "Ancient" as the sources describe multiple local deities and deities from other cultures (Baalshamin, Isis, Tyche, Dionysus), indicating deity-level powers. 2. Add sensory cues)
Naberius
Naberius is a marquis-ranked spirit in the Western grimoral/Goetic tradition (Lesser Key of Solomon) described as commanding legions and teaching arts—especially rhetoric—and associated with restoring or (in one source) removing honors. He appears in canine and corvine forms and is catalogued among early modern demonological lists.
