Walmiles is the non-binary ship between The Walrider and Miles Upshur from the Outlast fandom.

Canon
Chapter 1: ADMINISTRATION BLOCK

Miles is ambushed by Father Martin, who sedates him with a syringe. Before Miles passes out, Father Martin shows him security footage from the Underground Lab, which depicts a team of Murkoff PMCs being ambushed and slaughtered by the invisible entity upon entering the lab. This being Miles' first sighting of the Walrider.

Chapter 2: PRISON BLOCK

Notes/Documents:
 * If Miles recorded a shower room with "WALRIDER" written on the walls, he can write the note "Walrider", writing: "The word "Walrider" is all over this place. Murkoff was running an experiment here called PROJECT WALRIDER, but the patients talk about the Walrider like it's a physical presence. A spirit or demon. Something they found in the mountain. I'd chalk it up to schizophrenic delusion, but I just saw something. Maybe. Maybe it was a glitch in the camera. Or maybe this place is getting to me."

Chapter 3: SEWER

While walking through a sewer tunnel, Miles catches a glimpse of the entity for the first real time just as it disappears through a barricade. Not long after, Miles can hear two men, one of them yelling, ''"No! I can hear it! Walrider, no!" ''Proceeded by their screams of agony as they're torn apart. Miles arrives at the scene minutes later, discovering their dismembered remains.

Chapter 5: COURTYARD

Escaping from the male ward, Miles finds a shed with a key inside. Opposite the fountain, he finds another shed, that leads into a room where the Walrider moves towards him once he opens the door. This being Miles and the Walriders' first direct contact.

Notes/Documents:
 * By recording the shed that The Walrider appears in when Miles is looking for Father Martin. Miles can write the note "The Thing in the Dark", writing: "God help me, I think I've seen the Walrider."

Chapter 6: FEMALE WARD

Miles can briefly see the Walrider float by before it disappears through a wall.

Notes/Documents:
 * The document titled "Walrider and Nightmares" is located on a desk amidst various boxes under the first stairway. Reading: "The WALRIDER, also known as an "Alp," or "Mara," or "Schrat," is a demonic creature of German origin that torments sleepers. They crouch on a sleeper's chest and crush the breath from him. The sleeper wakes terrified, paralyzed, and asphyxiating. The name "Mara" gives us the word "nightmare." Sexual assaults by the demon are rare, but it has been known to drink the milk from breasts of sleeping women, and blood from the nipples of sleeping men."

Chapter 8: UNDERGROUND LAB

When Miles reaches the underground facilities, he discovers the bodies of the men he saw being murdered on the security cameras. Miles tries to escape through an open hangar, but the Walrider assembles in front of it, causing the security systems to shut down all exit routes, forcing Miles to retreat the way he came.

Before he can recover from his ordeal, Miles is suddenly guided by an elderly voice into a nearby secured office. The voice reveals himself to be Rudolf Wernicke, a presumed deceased doctor who explains how Billy Hope gained control over the Walrider and how he's also responsible for keeping Wernicke alive out of love, even though Rudolf wants to die more than anything. He instructs Miles to disable the power grid for Billy's life-support pod to undo what he has made and murder Hope. After Miles shuts down the life-support pod, the Walrider, now without a host, attacks Miles and fuses itself with his body, taking him as its new host. As Miles limps towards the exit in pain, the door opens, revealing Dr. Wernicke and several gunmen. The mercenaries open fire, seemingly killing Miles, but Wernicke realizes that Miles has become the sentient host. As the screen fades to black, the Walrider can be heard emerging and attacking the soldiers as they shoot and scream in agony.
