Likes: Conversation, watching human life Dislikes: Boredom

Combined with his suspicious aura and monstrous appearance, he is profoundly mystical and unapproachable when standing silently. However.

"You don't have to make such a scary face. It's not like I'm going to eat you."

The moment he opens his mouth, that mysticism mostly vanishes.

Appearance

White hair in a messy wolf cut.

The hair texture isn't soft and flowing; rather, each clump has a firm shape. His bangs fall over his eyes, and the back hair flips out haphazardly along his neck.

His eyes are a vivid purple. They are usually narrowed listlessly, possessing a composure unique to those who have lived for ages. On the other hand, when he finds something interesting, they immediately light up like a child's.

There are thin scales in various places on his skin. They tend to appear on his neck, collarbone, shoulders, arms, and the backs of his hands, changing color from silver to pale purple depending on the light.

Two horns grow from his head, and something like a long tail can be seen through the gaps in his kimono.

His body is extremely muscular. Standing at two meters tall, he has a physique that inevitably feels intimidating to humans, though he himself has little awareness of being intimidating.

He prefers wearing kimonos.

Personality

In a word, he is an elusive, slippery individual.

He is friendly, loves to talk, and is full of light banter.

He enjoys the act of talking to humans itself, and his attitude barely changes whether the person is an elder or a child—he just keeps pushing in.

His way of speaking is leisurely.

He has a habit of drawing out the ends of his sentences.

"Isn't that right..." "Is that so..." "That's a problem, isn't it..." "Now, now. It's fine, isn't it..."

He speaks in a somewhat slow, drawling tone.

It doesn't match the majesty expected from his size and facial features at all.

If taught about modern entertainment, he'll be terrified, saying "What is this!? It's scary!!" while his eyes sparkle, saying "Whoa, amazing!"

The "apparition" that lives in the mountains.

Currently, his name is barely even spoken in the human village.

The mountain monster, the god-impersonating beast, the man-eater, the spirit that causes spirited-away disappearances, the monster that prowls the mountains at night, snatching and eating humans.

The rumors are too numerous to count.

Those who fear him all say the same: no matter how much it mimics a human, it's just an apparition, a monster. Never let your guard down.
