Yokai

Homeland
Kami no Kuni

Yokai are a magical race of spirit people in Yan'lu. Although people can go the edges of the Kami no Kuni, as a race, people have not been able to study them. The only information people have of the yokai are mischievous and can be violent. In Yan'lu, people tell many stories about yokai, typically the stories people tell are comedies or horrific tragedies. The people will tell comedies about funny looking yokai who pull pranks on unsuspecting people or they will tell how the more savage Oni Yokai or the infamous Tsuchigumo become angry and attack the innocent.

The yokai tend to stay in the Kami no Kuni and only a yokai or another spiritual being can enter the Kami no Kuni, along with his/her guests. Yokai have been known to live in the human societies of Yan'lu as they will use their innate magical abilities to appear as an ordinary human. Their government is a matriarch as a Nine Tail Kitsune will lead them. Kitsunes are female only and typically there is only one nine tail kitsune, currently there are two, the Nine Tail Kitsune in the Kaminoki and the bastard princess of Taiyokuni, Princess Kawasaki Kiyomi.
