Description

Some characters designs for a personal project.

The Hannya mask portrays the souls of women who have become demons due to obsession or jealousy.
The floating lantern is based on Oiwa.

Namanari: These demons still resemble human women, although they have small horns. Namanari use dark magic to perform evil deeds such as summoning Ikiryo, a spirit that leaves the body of a living person and haunts other people or places. These demons are not completely evil and still have the opportunity to regain their humanity.

Chūnari: These are mid-level demons, with long, sharp horns and tusk-like fangs. Although they have more powerful magic than Namanari, they are still vulnerable to Buddhist prayer.

Honnari: True demons and the most powerful of all three, Honnari have serpentine bodies and can breathe fire. These are demons that have embraced their jealousy so deeply that they can no longer be saved.
