indweller
One who resides
An indweller is someone or something that dwells within—typically a spirit, presence, or quality residing inside a person or place.
The term appears most often in religious or philosophical contexts: the indweller of the soul, God as the indweller of all creation.
It suggests a permanent or essential inhabitant rather than a temporary visitor.
