okay so if you didn't know already (as in I don't remember if I've talked about her before) I have an oc named Yui who's an onryo and I've been thinking a lot about her lately and I was inspired by the web comic called Erma so I figured out the ages and species of her mom and her mom's siblings so here you go

I'm too lazy to start from the youngest's birth so here's the list from when the oldest was 15 because that made it easier for me

Haruki, teke teke: 15

Nori, hachishakusama: 13 Aiya, kejoro: 10

Yuna, onryo (Yui's mom): 9

Chiyo, ao andon: 7

HISUI TEAM - 百鬼夜行

... minus 95...

Despite only having 4 ghost types on this team, I really wanted to make a yokai-themed team. I'm actually going to write lore for these guys that I'm going to share publicly (*le gasp*). Info under the cut.

Hinoken - "Nurarihyon"

First of all, me thinking that Nurarihyon is sexy is all Nurarihyon no Mago's fault. Hinoken the Typhlosion is the leader of a group of "yokai" that are hiding from those who have arrived in Hisui from other places. He protects those he holds dear. Unfortunately, he also likes sleeping around and has commitment issues sometimes, so his ex wives and husbands all ended up leaving him. Despite how he seems, he values peace and wants lost souls to ascend with no regrets rather than staying on earth as he does. He haunts his descendants (Quilly, Blaze, Explo, and Solus) and is mildly disappointed in them.

Sachiko - "Zashiki Warashi"

Though not a ghost type, Sachiko the Pachirisu is a very lucky little zashiki warashi. Her presence keeps everyone safe while they're in hiding, even though she doesn't know that. Rikuu especially holds her dear to his heart and cares for her as if she were his daughter or younger sister. She's very sweet and likes to play small pranks on the others, who always forgive her. Her descendant (Graham) resembles her greatly, and she wishes he could hear her.

Tsurara - "Yuki Onna"

What could a Froslass be other than Yuki Onna? Tsurara the Froslass is potentially the most cruel of the group. She likes handsome men and may or may not have kidnapped Rikuu at one point (which is how he met everyone else). She tends to argue with Hinoken a lot (because they're ice and fire), but is generally tolerant of everyone else (or loving towards Sachiko, who she sees as a little sister). She is the one most likely to lash out at anyone who tries to come near those she loves. She is the only one still "alive" during the modern day, and is quite proud of her daughter Fubuki for finding such a handsome boyfriend.

Itoyo - "Tsukumogami" Armor

Itoyo the Basculegion was a normal man who inherited a cursed armor holding the souls of his ancestors. He acts as a defender for the hidden yokai village, and is seen as one of Hinoken's right hand men. He is constantly hearing the vengeful voices of the fallen, and is barely hanging on to his sanity by the time that Hinoken found him. He is one of the first to trust Rikuu when he first arrives at the village. He has no direct descendants.

Kiko - "Kejoro"

Kiko the Zoroark is a somewhat vengeful soul. She is a mother whose eldest child was killed, and she vows revenge. She was separated from her young son as well, and didn't find him again until he had settled in a faraway land. Kiko is one of Hinoken's ex wives, as well. Her first meeting with Rikuu was one of hostility as she believed that he was allied with those who killed her son. She is very happy that her descendant (Ienzo) is living a very happy and successful life, as that is all she ever wanted for her family.

Rikuu - Not a yokai lol

A traveler from Hoenn, Rikuu the Gallade came to the Hisui region after running away from an attempted assassination of his family. While he's wandering around Jubilife Village, he gets kidnapped by Tsurara and taken to the yokai village. He's completely confused and it takes Itoyo's intervention to keep him alive. He agrees to help keep the peace between the settlers and the yokai, and keeps the location of the village a secret. Sachiko thinks he's really cool, so she keeps following him around. Rikuu eventually moves back to the Hoenn region and re-starts his family. He thinks his descendants (Shimmer, Gleam, Twinkle, Sparkle, Glimmer, and Gladius) are dramatic.

so nothing like futakuchi-onna (Two mouthed woman)or yuki-onna or even Kejoro (hairy oiran/prostitute) stuff like that? you won't do that- it's fine if you don't bc there's a lot of them i think are cool

I think they're all cool but if I were to come face-to-face with them I would shit myself. I like creeping myself out like that tho, I used to be into creepypasta and crime documentaries

SPECIES INFO: Yokai

📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿

INFO: Native to Japan. Not quite spirits, not quite demons. Yokai are best described as tricksters. They are quite odd and tend to exist and hide everywhere from the mountains to the streams, to even inside your house.

Yokai come from the creator gods Izanami and Izanagi. Specifically from Izanamis death, which created the Yokai.

Yokai however are not gods per say. They are more just odd occurrences. Shadows out of the corner of your eye.

Some Yokai are dangerous, some are friendly. Some are simply just living their lives while others will actively try to make humans lives more chaotic.

ANATOMY: Yokai are natural shapeshifters. When they are born, they tend to start as a blank slate. Until they decide what sort of Yokai they want to become.

Humans can become Yokai though that is more of a rarer occurrence.

Yokai can sometimes overlap with other Occults like merfolk or fae.

The different types of Yokai tend to be more specializations on what the individual Yokai likes to do. Though there are a few exceptions to this (like for example Oni and Kitsune.)

POWERS: All Yokai have the ability to shapeshift. They are some of the best at it actually. They are able to become whatever they wish to scare humans.

They also tend to be physically strong as well being able to rip apart humans for food and what not.

STRENGTHS: Shapeshifting is their biggest strength. It’s incredibly hard to catch a Yokai due to not only their physical strength but also them being able to shift into whatever they please. A Yokai you try and chase after can simply turn invisible at a drop of the hat and escape you.

WEAKNESSES: Salt is a big weakness to Yokai like allot of occults. Shimenawa however is one of the biggest weaknesses to most Yokai (besides Kitsune.) If you place a Shimenawa over a doorway, most Yokai will not be able to get in.

Other sacred objects from Shintoism and other folk religions from Japan will work on Yokai.

Soybeans also tend to be a weakness for some Yokai. Like for example Oni.

📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿📿

SUBSECTIONS:

Kitsune: Born from the deity Inari. These Yokai take the form of foxes or sometimes humans. They are servants of Inari and can either be a huge help or… hindering… Due to their Fox like nature they sometimes are a bit too lazy or cunning to actually help you. They are one of the only Yokai that can go into holy spaces and shrines due to their connection to Inari.

Kitsune gain a tail for each 100 years they are a kitsune.

Kitsune tend to be carnivores, however don’t eat humans. They have the ability to control fire and lightning, and are able to float and do divination.

Kejoro: A feminine Yokai shaped like a Yujo or Juri. They have long hair that covers their face hiding their monstrous teeth that craves human flesh. They usually use their means of seduction to lure in male victims. Wearing their kimono a way a prositute would (Obi in the front and slightly off the shoulders.)

However. If you leave them alone they tend to not be as violent as other violent Yokai.

Aonyobo: A Yokai shaped like a nobleman or woman. Dressed in fancy kimonos and makeup. They are constantly checking their appearance in case they have guests over. However when a guest does manage to find one they have a tendency to be so hungry they eat them instead.

Yuki-Onna: A feminine Yokai associated with the cold and snow. People who are lost in blizzards often find her calling to them in the distance. They get transfixed by her beauty and perish in the cold snow.

Bake-Danuki: The Enemy of the Kitsune. Tanukis are said to bring good fortune if you find one. They like to play pranks on humans, though they’re more humorous than chaotic. They also like to entertain humans by drumming on their large bellies.

Taka-Onna: A feminine Yokai who is incredibly tall. She likes to peak through windows and over hedges and trees. Just staring and licking her lips. Giggling. Very creepy. Nobody knows what happens to the people who she grabs and takes away.

Oni: Oni, a type of violent Yokai with large horns and teeth. They tend to leave in caves and their main diet is animals and humans. Oni tend to hoard riches and gold so sometimes are used as a good luck charm to attract wealth. Some Oni are nicer than others, but they tend to be a bit dimwitted. They tend to only have one or two brain cells amongst a group of them.

Nekomata: A humanoid cat Yokai with a split tail. They are known to live in villages together and are friendly to humans. They have their own Kitty religion and you can even find Neko Geiko in their little towns. They eat the same diet that normal cats do.

Kuchisake-Onna: A feminine Yokai. Usually either wearing a mask or hiding her face with a fan. She will approach you, revealing her face, bloody and with slits in her mouth making a smile, she will ask you if she’s pretty. If you say yes, she will slit your mouth into a smile, if you say no, she will kill you.

Jorogumo: A feminine Yokai who looks like a beautiful woman until she reveals that she is part spider. But by the time you figure that out she probably has you trapped in her web. These Yokai can also control real spiders. Their diet is usually meat and humans.

Inugami: Spirits that live inside households that either take the shape of or possess dogs. They act as little Shinto priests or priestesses. Protecting your home in exchange for belly rubs and treats. They have a diet of a normal dog. They can also go into shrines or sacred places.

Futakuchi-Onna: A feminine Yokai, They normally look completely normal until they get hungry, revealing a second mouth on the back of their head… They tend to eat normal food and occasionally humans.

Suzuhiko Hime: A feminine Yokai, and incredibly friendly. They are a humanoid figure comprised of many types of bells, they tend to show up around Shrines and will dance for patrons.

Tennin: A form of Yokai/Angel found only in Asia. They are a humanoid figure with long flowing robes and sashes. Similarly to most angels they will help and protect humans. They are also gifted in the art of music and humans often find them playing songs on mountains and such.

A little sketch I did last night. I am very into Nura Rise of the Yokai Clan if you can't tell. I think this is the first piece of art I am uploading to Tumblr too~! I will try to put some more up...anything I am proud of anyway.

By the way, Kitsuneko is my fan character if you were confused. I may put a bio up for her sometime, as I am very proud of her design and personality. 😋

I used this base (but cut out a character), so thank you to the person that made it!

I had to contribute something to this dying fandom~ lol

I hope you like my art! Please do not reupload it anywhere without my permission. You can definitely reblog it though! 😉 Thank you!

Drawlloween Day 8: Yokai. Kejōrō is a prostitute whose face and body are hidden behind a curtain of long, matted black hair. A kejōrō’s victims are the young men who frequent brothels and red light districts. Thinking he sees a girl that he recognizes from behind, a man runs up to the kejōrō to speak with her. When she turns around, her face and body are covered by a thick mat of hair, hiding all of her features. Her victim is shocked by the horrible, hairy monster in front of him, giving her time to attack her victim, tangling him up in her hair and using it to slice him up. #kejōrō #kejoro #yokai #drawlloween2018 #mabsdrawlloweenclub #kejourou https://www.instagram.com/p/BosfMmblh9A/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=121aejaftacxk
