Popobawa · salience 0.8
“Descriptions of the Popobawa's appearance vary across tellings, but recurring elements include a single large eye, leathery bat-like wings, and a generally misshapen or grotesque form”
Fachan · salience 0.8
“The fachan of Irish and Scottish Highland tradition is built on the arithmetic of one: one hand protruding from the ridge of its chest, one leg from its haunch, one eye in the front of its face, and one tuft of hair on its head — of which the Gaelic teller says it were easier to pull a mountain up by the root than to bend that tuft.”
Graeae
“Their most famous trait, appearing across the sources with little variation, is that the three sisters share a single eye and a single tooth between them, passing the eye from hand to hand so that only one of them can see at any given moment.”
Kabandha
“described across sources as a hairy, mountain-sized being with no head or neck, a single vast eye and a fanged mouth set into his chest or belly, and enormously long arms that serve him in place of legs.”
