Orochi is a massive dragon/snake-like yokai with eight serpentine heads (seven circling a much larger head in the center) and eight constantly whistling tails. He is so gigantic, he can be mistaken for a small mountain range. Due to his massive size, he has a small forest growing on his back. Each of his sixteen eyes are cherry-red and seem to glow in the dark.
