Baigujing and Gashadokuru
Added 2022-03-31 18:00:04 +0000 UTCBaigujing (White Bone Demon) is a character in in the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. She doesn't have much in the way of combat chops, but she really wants a bite of Tang Sanzang, the main character, on account of how holy he is, so she tries to break up the gang to get him alone. Sun Wukong can tell she's a secret demon and attacks her, but everyone else is pissed at him for apparently going full murderhobo on a commoner for no reason and kicks him out of the party.
The Gashadokuru is a yokai comprised of the collective resentment of victims of famine caused by war. This 70 ft. skeleton made of smaller skeletons stalks the roads at night, clattering invisibly until it strikes, seeking to bite the heads off whoever it can, though ideally it'll go after someone responsible in some way for the famine. It is indestructible until it has fully expended the rage that animates it.
