I made a school project on this painting.

After a short-lived one, here’s my monthly official. That’s my way now, one yokai per month, à la @Accidental_Kills98

The Koroka. Here’s his description:
Koroka were once old stone lanterns, and are considered a type of “tsukumogami” (an item that has acquired a spirit.) When a stone lantern that has long remained in disuse is suddenly found lit of its own accord, this is said to be to work of Koroka, or possibly a sign that a Koroka is nearby. A Koroka’s flame strikes fear into the hearts of all who see it, for it is believed that these unlucky few will die within days.

While a Koroka has no face, a soft flame flickers where its head would be. However, witnesses have seen Koroka lift the pipe they wield to their flame the way a man might smoke his tobacco. One theory is that a Koroka’s pipe is somehow connected to the Yokai Realm, and they smoke it to inhale otherworldly fumes that fuel an incoming deadly attack.

Medium-difficulty enemies, but nice lore and appearance.

Time for a change. Went with this one I found that was supposedly made for a T-shirt. Credit to the artist, whoever they may be.

I had no idea it was fucking July already. The painting might change between now and the weekend by the way, I wanted to throw something up here until I have more time to do a proper write-up on an artist.

Looks like someone’s having a hard rock concert on Easter Island.
