Mokumokuren

The Mokumokuren was a peculiar beast, because no one had ever seen its true form. It resided in the space between Ningen-do and Gaki-do, appearing in the ripped holes of a paper wall, Enemies of the Empire, p. 248 taking the form of a human in a red kimono. Creatures of Rokugan: Third Edition, p. 134
== Appearence and Abilities ==
The mokumokuren appeared as a set of strange mystic eyes that peer out of holes in paper walls. Those who ever met its gaze, became a victim of the spirit, which attempted to mesmerize them, to feed on the human's mental energies. Mokumokuren had a humanoid shape, comprimised of a thousand small, multicolored globes of scintillating light. When the ghost attacked his eyes would turn blood red. Creatures of Rokugan, p. 44 The easiest way to banish a mokumokuren was to fix all the holes in the paper walls. It would simply move on in search of another ill-maintained wall. 
== Defender ==
The mokumokuren occasionally showed itself to an enemy just before it slayed him, attacking
with a ghostly katana while flying around to avoid its opponents' attacks. When it appeared in the dreams of those it protected, the mokumokuren wore a black mask to avoid frightening that person with was visage.
