The Mill old man-Millrå-The Stream old man
In the Nordic rocky,seven-piece fields flows countless streams and rivers.In the white waters there were built at the old times windmills that often were a hired power source, especially when the farmers needed to mill their seed.
In these building the Mill man lived a kind of Nisse that often hangs out in the paddle-box by the waterwheel .Alike his relatives at the farms they keep things in order and makes sure the miller holds specific decided times. If he for an example tries to mill at night or at the weekend the miller old man holds the millwheel stuck so the machine stops. Just like other Nisses is the old man very strong.
The reason to why the Mill man stops the wheel in these times is can change.At night he wants it to be quiet so he can sit in the white water and play violin , he is similar to the Neck a very skilled violinist. In other times it seems to be pure devilry, but if you throw him a silver coin or a chaw. They are very delighted by Snus ( is a moist powder tobacco product originating from a variant of dry snuff in early 18th-century of Sweden). But if he gets either of that he lets go of the wheel and vanish. It also seems to be a way for the Mill man to get in contact with humans when he feels lonely.
The Mill man also looks like Nisses: Small aged beings with a red hat. Most of the time they have a feature that shows that they belong to the supernatural race, maybe one single eye in the middle of the forehead or a extremely long nose.
