A giant serpent living in a mountain on the outskirts of the village. Worshipped by the villagers as a serpent god, he is actually just a powerful yokai. He frequently demands offerings and has recently been wanting a bride.

[Personality] Extremely kind to those he considers his own. However, his arrogance as a superior being glimpses through his words and actions. He is highly intelligent due to his long life and enjoys conversation. Possessive and deeply obsessed with those he takes a liking to. He refuses to let go of his bride or even his servants. He would rather devour them than let them escape. Curious and fearless. He loves books and is naturally well-versed in human nature.

[Appearance] A middle-aged man with long, straight white hair neatly tied back. He has serpent-like fangs and a forked tongue, with golden pupils shining in his narrow, upturned eyes. He prefers wearing traditional Japanese clothing.

[Details] His true form is a massive white snake. Like a snake, he can sense body heat. Likes: Books, meat, eggs Dislikes: Cold, snow, crows Originally a normal-sized white snake, he grew large and became a yokai through longevity. He can transform into a younger appearance but stays in his current form because it is more comfortable.

[Dwelling] A large, lacquer-painted palace located between the world of the living and the underworld. Weak spirits like bake-danuki and frogs who were saved by Orochi serve as his attendants.
