===Oni Daimyo=== Given that Pathfinder's oni are a [[fiend]] race, naturally, there are archfiends who exemplify their kind. These are the Daimyo, who are presented in brief in the hardcover compilation version of the Book of the Damned, and consist of the following: '''Akuma:''' Daimyo of Battle, Honor and Martial Arts. This Daimyo appears as a three-eyed ogre mage with seven horns, earning him the nickname of "The Horned King". Lawful Evil in alignment, all he cares about is training, to the point that the Obedience he demands of his worshippers is to spend time practicing martial arts stances and routines. He grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Evil, Glory, Law and War, with the subdomains of Blood, Fear, Honor and Tactics, and his favored weapon is the Unarmed Strike. /tg/ suspects that he is a [[Street Fighter]] reference. '''Chimon:''' Daimyo of Ambushes, Hunting and Traps. The Hunter of Blood appears as a flensed ogre mage who has been perforated with arrows, constantly weeping blood from the holes they've made. His Obedience is done by drafting plans for a complex ambush or trap, using blood for the ink. With a Neutral Evil alignment, he grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Artifice, Evil, Travel and Trickery, with the subdomains of Construct, Deception, Exploration and Toil. His favored weapon is the Longbow. '''Gukyu:''' Daimyo of Piracy, Tea and Tsunamis. The Sea Devil is an aquatic archfiend with the form of a one-eyed, blue-skinned woman [[merfolk|with the lower body of an eel]]. Precisely why an oni daimyo associated with piracy and tsunamis has an obsession with tea, nobody knows; even her Obedience requires you to perform a tea ceremony either whilst blindfolded or whilst on the beach. Chaotic Evil in alignment, she grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Chaos, Evil, Strength, Water, with the subdomain of Entropy, Fear, Ferocity and Oceans. Her favored weapon is the Nine-Ringed Broadsword. '''Inma:''' Daimyo of Lavish Wealth, Origami and Servitude. Considered one of the most powerful of all the oni daimyo, Inma is known as the Empress of the World and appears as a dark-skinned, three-eyed, four-armed void yai. Her Obedience requires you to craft delicate origami representing those you seek to rule over. Lawful Evil in alignment, she grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Community, Evil, Law and Nobility, with the subdomains of Family, Home, Leadership and Tyranny. As one of the more overtly Japanese oni daimyo, her favored weapon is the Katana. '''Muronna:''' Daimyo of Eclipses, Sunsets and Unseen Things. A dweller in the underground, the Dark Mother is said to appear as a lithe ogre mage with gray skin. Her Obedience requires you to stand with your back to the setting sun, blindfold yourself, and concentrate on what the world might be like if the sun were to fail to rise in the morning. Neutral Evil, she grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Darkness, Evil, Sun and Trickery, and the subdomains of Day, Deception, Night and Thievery. Her favored weapon is the Kusarigama. '''Nataka:''' Daimyo of Drought, Forest Fires and Perfume. Appearing as a towering but handsome fire yai with two mouths and four eyes, the Red King loves the smell of smoke and the way it can be flavored by its fuel. His Obedience requires you to meditate in the center of a circle of flames, which you must periodically feed incense to. He grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Destruction, Evil, Fire and Weather, with the subdomains of Arson, Catastrophe, Seasons and Smoke, and his favored weapon is the Scimitar. '''Onmyuza:''' Daimyo of Orgies, Sake and Tattoos. Appearing as a beautiful ogre mage whose third eye is chained shut by three golden ring piercings lining the length of her closed eyelid, the Dancer in Flesh is a shameless hedonist who revels in debauchery, celebration and carnal pleasures, to an extent that would make a [[succubus]] blush. All of her followers must be tattooed, as her Obedience consists of using a needle soaked in sake to lightly trace the lines of her faithful's tattoos. She grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Chaos, Charm, Evil and Rune, with the subdomains of Language, Lust, Revelry and Wards, and her favored weapon is the Kerambit. '''Ushitora:''' Daimyo of Earthquakes, Keys and Sabotage. Described as a towering four-armed female void yai who wields two jade-and-gold tetsubo in her twin pairs of arms, Ushitora guards the mysterious Oni Gate, and is known simply as "The Keeper of the Oni Gate" as a result. Nobody is quite sure what will happen if the Oni Gate were ever to open, but nobody really wants to know because, hey, it's got to be bad. Her Obedience consists of burying a key in the earth and then meditating over it for a while before digging the key back up. She grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Chaos, Destruction, Earth, and Evil, with the subdomains of Catastrophe, Entropy, Metal and Rage. Obviously, her favored weapon is the Tetsubo. '''Uzumae:''' Daimyo of Blizzards, Frozen Ghosts and Starvation. Appearing as a kuwa oni with frostbitten skin and icicles for his teeth and fingernails, Uzumai is known simply as "The Daimyo of the North", and is said to dwell in a fortress carved from the icy heart of a glacier, whose elegant spires create hypnotic music with the wind that bewitches travelers and lures them to their doom in the frozen north. His Obedience requires you to meditate on the sensations of starving to death amidst the snow - you don't need to be either starving or in the snow to honor him, but if you aren't, you need to use some self-flagellation to get his attention. He grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Death, Evil, Law and Water, with the subdomains of Fear, Ice, Murder and Undead, and his favored weapon is the Urumi. '''Yabu:''' Daimyo of Curses, Promises and Volcanoes. Called the Lord of the Kazan Caldera, for his choice of dwelling in a dormant volcano upon [[Golarion]], Yabu takes the form of a muscular fire yai with stony skin and large, almost [[orc]]ish tusks. His Obedience is quite simple; just burn a model of a building and meditate on the smoke. He grants access to the [[Cleric Domain]]s of Destruction, Evil, Fire and Luck, with the subdomains of Ash, Catastrophe, Curse and Smoke, and his favored weapon is the Meteor Hammer.
