Mulgda

Mulgda (물그다, Korean for "mixed"), also known as "Mulgdas," are enigmatic and eerie entities that have garnered attention due to their bizarre and unsettling physical characteristics across several Ebrugh Reports. These slug-like creatures measure approximately two meters in length, making them notably elongated in shape.

## Appearance

Mulgda possess a rather grotesque and otherworldly form. Their bodies consist of a singular, elongated, and limbless structure, resembling that of a slug. These creatures lack appendages of any kind, including arms and legs. Their skin is notably slimy and fleshy in texture, which contributes to their overall unsettling appearance.

One of the most peculiar and disconcerting features of the Mulgda is the presence of human faces located at one end of their bodies. The expressions on these faces are often described as vacant or eerie, adding an element of uncanniness to their appearance. The existence of these humanoid faces on a creature with such an otherwise alien physique remains a subject of unease. Mulgda are alsp noted for secreting a viscous and slimy substance from their skin. This slime has been the subject of much curiosity and speculation among people.

## Documented Sightings

In several Ebrugh Reports, Mulgda creatures make appearances, often in the context of tunnels underground. The following reports shed light on various encounters and beliefs surrounding these entities. They provide a glimpse into the perplexing and eerie world of Mulgda encounters, where folklore, dreams, and unsettling realities intertwine, leaving many questions unanswered.

### Ebrugh Report 3

The first documented encounter with Mulgda comes from a pair of intrepid travelers, Lucy Pines and Benjamin Drumpsman. Their journey led them to remote Chinese villages, where they ventured deep into a forest and became entangled in a series of unsettling events. During their exploration, they stumbled upon a ritual being performed by the natives. Benjamin Drumpsman was turned into a Mulgda by these indigenous people. Lucy Pines, on the other hand, managed to escape, but not without acquiring a dark shard. In a chilling twist of fate, she, too, began a gradual transformation into a Mulgda after cutting herself on said shard. In the end, her brother, who tries to figure out what happened to his sister, gets turned as well.

### Ebrugh Report 9

The Mulgda appear in the vision-like dreams of the Ebrugh, that an explorer experienced. In these dreams, the Mulgda are shown as creatures believed created by the Ebrugh themselves, originating from abducted humans. These dreams suggest a deep connection between the Ebrugh and the Mulgda, hinting at a mysterious and possibly ominous purpose behind their existence. Furthermore, it is revealed that the Mulgda-Slime plays a significant role in the nourishment or sustenance of the Ebrugh.

### Ebrugh Report 17

In the North Korean city of Gipeun, stories and legends about Mulgda are are told, particularly about encounters in the nearby mountains and tunnels. These tales were often used to deter children from venturing too far, especially since the border to South Korea was in proximity. While Mulgda were primarily used as cautionary figures to frighten children, rare occurrences have suggested their tangible presence. After heavy rainfall, dead Mulgda have occasionally washed ashore near the beaches, presumably having been swept out of tunnels and met their demise in the sea.

In one unsettling account, a group of children had a firsthand encounter with a Mulgda when one of them accidentally fell into a hole while exploring the mountainous areas near the city. The Mulgda apparently approached the young girl, Jisoo, and the details of what transpired next remain shrouded in mystery: The other children fled the scene in fear, and no further documentation or evidence exists to shed light on Jisoo's fate, except for the haunting fact that she was never seen again.

## **Documented Abilities**

Mulgda do not appear to have special abilities and are just husks of people who once were in contact with the black material documented in several reports. It is unclear, whether they need oxygen, as the Mulgda that once was Lucy Pines apparently survived swimming through a river.

## Other

* It is unknown how many Mulgda still live, but several are clearly still in deep tunnels beneath the ground.
