[edit] Origin
Sentei no Oni was forged from the power of Jigoku using the soul of Shokansuru's once time friend, yojimbo and fellow magistrate Shiba Sentei. After Iuchiban captured the City of the Lost Shokansuru fled out into the Shadowlands where he found the Forgotten Tomb of Fu Leng. There he could tap into the power of Jigoku directly, and began creating oni using the souls of his former allies.[1]
[edit] Description
Sentei no Oni resembles a giant insect with vague humanoid features. The body is segmented with hundreds of massive legs moving its even bigger body. It uses its first four or five pairs of legs as arms, rearing up to grasp at it's enemies.[1]
[edit] Abilities
Sentei no Oni is considered possibly the most dangerous of Shokansuru's creations, as it appears to be impossible to destroy it. It has better regenerative powers than nearly every other creature in the Shadowlands, and even if it is believed to have been killed, a tiny portion surviving would mean the creature would return to life sooner or later. In battles the creature charges directly at it's enemies, attempting to trample them. Failing that it rears up and attempts to grapple them.[1]
[edit] Pale Oak Castle
When the yobanjin attacked Pale Oak Castle during the War of Dark Fire, the Onyx Champion Isawa Fosuta summoned Sentei no Oni to defend his mother's home.[2]
