Yoma no Oni

Yoma no Oni was an oni of the Shadowlands.
== Characteristics ==
Oni no Yoma appeared to be human, but was able to discard that form. Yoma no Oni's body would burst open, releasing an enormous swarm of aggressive insects, each the size of a man's index finger. The demon had a high resistance to jade and was somehow completely immune to crystal, and was vulnerable only to fire. Way of Shinsei, p. 98
== Attack ==
The insects spread out and attacked as many people as it could successfully manage. After a human was dead, the insects bore into the skin of the body and being feasting on his innards, multiplying their numbers. The oni took the remnants and used the skin as a Bog Hag, masquerading as a human until it was ready to strike again. 
== Death ==
On a Crab incursion into the Shadowlands on the onset of the Clan War the oni possessed a shugenja, by the name Kuni Yoma. Yoma fled from his companions to Kuni lands and took refuge in Shihoden Temple. After being tracked down, Yoma used his abilities to assault his pursuers and the monks of the temple. A Kuni Shugenja sacrificed his own life to burn Shihoden Temple down around Yoma, and the temple's monks with him. Way of Shinsei, pp. 96-97
