Shokushu no Oni

Shokushu no Oni are commonly used as shock troops in the Shadowlands. They are large and fearsom brutes who enjoy killing and are not smart enough to question orders. They body is trunk like and reaches up to 15 feet in length, and their hide is a sickly bluish color. Their head has three short horns protruding from the front, and they have small piercing eyes. Their large mouth is filled with three rows of sharp teeth, but most striking about their appearance are the eight long tentacles that extend from it's body. The Shokushu no Oni will either bite it's enemies with it's sharp teeth or suffocate them with it's tentacles. The tentacles are as flexible as whips, and can easily grasp a human and cover their mouth and nose. In the civil war in the Shadowlands in the Twelfth century they sided with The Maw against Daigotsu. (CoR3E p. 167)
