Minikui no Oni

Minikui no Oni

Minikui no Oni was an oni of the Shadowlands.

Appearance[]

Minikui no Oni were solitary demons who wandered the Shadowlands in search of weaker monsters to kill and challenge any strong oni in their path. They were tall, with pale-green skin, and used their long claws in combat. The four arms grappled their victims and brought them to their mouth to bite. A human face was twisted by a huge maw with razor-sharp teeth. Their collarbones and parts of their ribs protruded from the skin and pulsed with a dark red glow, the weakest points of the demon. [1]

Appearance in Lion Lands[]

In 1199 a Minikui no Oni was summoned in the Lion lands by a descendant of the defunct Shimizu family. Seventy-eight of our peasants perished in its rampage, before the scout Ikoma Jeiku warned of its presence. Eighteen Lion samurai were lost before the oni was defeated. [2] The Lion's ire turned to the Crab Clan, blaming the demon had trespassed their lines unnoticed. [3]
