NAME: Umibozu “Sea bonze”
DESCRIPTION
An enormous yokai said to live in the ocean and capsize the ship
of anyone who dares speak to it. The Umibozu is said to have a
large, round head, resembling the shaven heads of Buddhist
monks. They are believed to be drowned priests, and exhibit the
shaven head and typically appear to be praying. It is usually re-
ported as having a grey, cloud-like torso and serpentine limbs. If
angered, they ask that the crews provide a barrel that it proceeds
to fill with sea water to drown them. To avoid this disastrous Points
fate, it is necessary to give him a bottomless barrel.
