Zashiki Warashi

Zashiki Warashi, or parlor children, were a tragic sort of rokugani ghosts. They were the spirits of dead children, wandering the mortal realm because they do not know where else to go. This was due to improper burial or desecration of their grave, and they lingered near their corporeal remains.

Zashiki warashi ressembled small children dressed in shadowy black clothing. They weared white masks of painted wood or porcelain. They had no legs but simply hovered in midair.
