Viy (pronounced Veey) is a Slavic mythical creature that is supposed to live in the western part of Ukraine, a gnome with an iron face and very fucking long eyelids. It can kill you just by looking at you, but because of his elongated eyelids, demons have to open them for him. After killing you, Viy will take your a̶s̶s̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶f̶u̶c̶k̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶s̶o̶ ̶h̶a̶r̶d̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶w̶o̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶b̶e̶ ̶a̶b̶l̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶s̶t̶a̶n̶d̶ take your soul.
