Medium-band imaging reveals red emission-line galaxies at z>5 including compact objects likely missed by classic Little Red Dot selection criteria.
Five LRDs at z≈2 yield number density ≈7×10^{-6} cMpc^{-3}, confirming a decline from the z≈5 peak but gentler than prior photometric estimates.

Little Red Dots at z~2 in EIGER reveal a gentle decline with respect to their peak number density at z~5
Five LRDs at z≈2 yield number density ≈7×10^{-6} cMpc^{-3}, confirming a decline from the z≈5 peak but gentler than prior photometric estimates.
