Tam Lin (タムリン, Tamurin)?/(タム・リン, Tamu Rin)? is a demon in the series.
A famous fairy who was said to haunt Caterhaugh Wood in England. He supposedly lured young women away to ruin them. He was once a human who had been trapped by the Fairy Queen. A young woman named Janet is said to have fallen in love with him at one point, and finally managed to free him.
"Origin: Ireland. He guards the forest of Carterhaugh. Originally, he was a human kidnapped by the fairy queen. He was wounded while hunting in the forest, allowing the fairy queen to capture him. From there, he was meant to become a sacrifice seven years later. But through Janet's efforts and Tam Lin's strong will, he safely returned to his world."
