Esta cubierto de un pelaje similar al del lobo pero de color amarillo oro. De ahi vien su nombre; Milla=oro.

Fue concebido entre una mujer hermosa y un lobo de mar durante la batalla entre Tentén Vilu y Cai Cai Vilu.

Su reino es el mar. A veces se le ve con la Huenchula, su mujer, pasear por la orilla del mar.

Este ser tiende a raptar niñas desprevenidas en las orillas del mar, en las horas que el mar sube.

Con la Huenchula tiene 3 hijos: La Pincoya, El Pincoy y la Sirena.
