Fans will recall the hit show Mulawin, which starred Richard Gutierrez as Aguiluz and Angel Locsin as Alwina in 2004.

In the 2005 Encantadia series, the Mulawins made several appearances such as when Imaw shared to a group of children how the Mulawins have helped the Diwatas, how Bagwis and Dakila helped Danaya, and Avilan, the leader of the Mulawins serving as a spirit guide to Amihan. They also appeared during the final battle after Lira sought help in defeating the Hathors.

Mulawin the Movie was shown in 2005, where Richard and Angel reprised their roles as Alwina and Aguiluz. The 2005 cast of Encantadia also appeared in the movie. – Rappler.com
