Thank you for this lovely idea. I am a big supporter of sets related to mythology - and I am very happy that they are in demand. I think it is a beautiful way to represent a culture.
Here's a bit more information about these characters:
The
Trauco
is a humanoid creature of small stature—similar to a dwarf or goblin—who lives deep in the forest. It has an ugly face, and legs without feet.Coi Coi-Vilu
or Caicai-Vilu
is the Mapuche god of water and, according to Mapuche myths, supreme ruler of the sea and of all sea-dwellers.Ten Ten-Vilu
or Trentren-Vilu
is the Mapuche god of Earth and Fertility; he has a generous spirit and is the protector of all life on Earth, and the flora and fauna and according to some Mapuche myths.The
Pincoya
is according to local mythology, a female "water spirit" of the Chilotan Seas. The Pincoya is said to have long blond hair, be of incomparable beauty, be cheerful and sensual, and rise from the depths of the sea.The
Caleuche
, also called The Enchanted Ship, Barcoiche, The Ghost Ship, or The Warlocks' Ship, is a legendary ghost ship from Chilote mythology in southern Chile. Millalobo
is the most powerful being of the sea after Caicai and was chosen by Caicai to be his representative and govern all that resided in the sea.The
imbunche
is a legendary monster that protects the entrance to a warlock's cave.Hope this helps! :)
