Hymn - Mihail Monsters & Animals (mihail Immersive Add-on - Undead - Wizard)

The Hymn is an evil void entity of unknown nature that resembles a floating elongated shadow with long arms, sharp claws, a horned head and spikes along its spine. It is particularly powerful because it does not attack its target directly, but instead feeds on the target's guilt or desires, acting as a mental obsession.

The Hymn is an evil void entity of unknown nature, resembling a floating elongated shadow with long arms with sharp claws, a horned head and spikes along its spine. This is especially powerful because instead of attacking the target directly, it feeds on the target's guilt or desires, torturing them to the point of outright anger or suicide in the first case, or luring them into evil or, in the second case, using tyrannical methods to gain this power.

Hym is a spiritual obsession and his presence around a person can be seen as a form of possession. Monsters most often take innocent victims as victims: dull merchants, reckless children, and travelers wandering the dark woodlands out of curiosity. But none of the above is a lullaby for fear. These ghosts only haunt those who are particularly despicable, those who have committed some unspeakable crime or have an abnormal lust for power and/or authority. To all others they remain completely invisible. When they do reveal themselves to those being tortured, they appear as a tall, shadowy, humanoid silhouette with long, sharp claws, as previously mentioned. Yet the hymn does not sink these claws into its victims. Instead, they directly weaken themselves through suffering or the indignity of greater ambition and selfishness. The voices are heard only by the victim and they drive him to commit acts of violence, selfishness, aggression and/or self-harm. Hymns would seize upon a sinful man's worst fears or abominations of power, and weave from them monstrous visions, slowing the poor soul's descent into madness or self-inflicted selfishness. Those tortured by the hymn are unable to restful sleep as they are tormented by increasingly frequent, mind-boggling nightmares, Or because of the constant dream of achieving their own selfish goals with glory. Sometimes the victim becomes extremely marginalized, shouting or threatening at unseen visions, or confessing his guilt out loud in the hope that this will end his torment. However, this act brings no relief, as the hymn will not disappear until it completely incapacitates the victim or causes him to commit suicide.

You have no way of telling when someone is under the influence of the Hymn, and if you are unlucky enough to fight one who has it, the Hymn will emerge from that person's corpse and engage you in combat due to their fear and sharp claws, the ability to partially freeze the space in the area they are in, and the dark magic they use.

In main quests, db quests, thieves guild quests, cw quests and mage quests you will find unique Hym with important roles. They are not necessarily evil, just people with authoritarian tendencies and sometimes good intentions, but their desires make them prey to certain hymns. Beyond that, you'll find that Hym has a random maniac, a lot of guilt, and is prone to suicide. Sometimes, bandit lords with a strong thirst for power are also possessed by hymns.

Remember, hymns don't necessarily control a possessed person's behavior, he just increases the desire or guilt for power and feeds off it.

Depending on the stage of possession, the person has complete control over their actions, only interacting with Hym in a very confused and weak way while dreaming, and sometimes hearing certain whispers of Hym.

A strong mind is stronger and more difficult to be dominated by a hymn than the mind of an ordinary weak man.

Soul Mountain has some resident hymns that are passive unless you attack them. Perhaps Soul Mountain is the origin of this strange creature.
