Originally dwelling in the dense forests along the India-Bangladesh border, the Mande Mystic was drawn to the Himalayas when it sensed the growing threat to its cousin species, the Yeti. Recognizing Tenzin Norgay's pure intentions, it revealed itself to the Whiteout Guardians and offered its generations of accumulated wisdom about the delicate relationship between humans and cryptid beings.

The Mande Mystic possesses the rare ability to communicate telepathically with other cryptid species across vast distances, serving as a translator of intentions between the human guardians and the Yeti. It navigates the mountain terrain with uncanny precision, knowing ancient pathways and hidden caves that have been forgotten by human explorers for centuries. While powerful in its knowledge and spiritual connection, it grows weaker when exposed to modern technology and the skepticism of non-believers, retreating deeper into the mountains when threatened.

Within the Whiteout Guardians, the Mande Mystic serves as both diplomat and knowledge keeper, preserving ancient understandings of the mountain's spiritual significance while actively working to mislead Dr. Banerjee's expedition away from the Yeti's most sacred domains.
