•••Japanese Mythology AU•••

* 🦊 Kitsune — depicted as intelligent and possessing magical abilities. Foxes were once thought to be messengers of the kami (divine being) Inari. It was believed that foxes could take on human form, usually the shape of a beautiful woman., They're depicted as tricksters rather than evil monsters. The idea of nine-tailed foxes comes from China, where they were believed to be omens.
***
* 👺 Tengu — In their earliest depictions, they were dark, crow-like creatures that liked to cause mischief, but luckily they were easy to fool. Later, another form of tengu appeared, this one more humanlike, with an extremely long red nose and a fierce expression. These were the daitengu or greater tengu, demi-gods that protected the mountains they lived on, but now the lesser tengu are also depicted with a similar appearance. Tengu were once thought to be evil, but later people began thinking of them as protective spirits.
***
* 🦝 Tanuki — raccoon dogs. Tanuki were once revered as guardians of the natural world, but gradually their image shifted to one of a slow, comical trickster. believed to have limited magical powers including shape-shifting abilities, just like kitsune. In real life, tanuki have enormous testicles, and this hasn't gone unnoticed by observers.
***
* 🐺 Ōkami – A powerful wolf spirit that either takes your life or protects it, depending on the actions one does in his or her life.
***
* 🐱 Bakeneko — yōkai, or supernatural creature. It is often confused with the nekomata, another cat-like yōkai.[2] The distinction between them is often ambiguous, but the largest difference is that the Nekomata has two tails, while the Bakeneko has only one.
***
* 🕸 Jorogumo — enormous, spider-like demons, evil and hungry for human flesh. The jorogumo can disguise as attractive women. Its name "jorogumo" sounds like "spider maiden", but it's written with kanji that have a different meaning, and also refers to several species of real spiders.
