They call me many things: Murderer. Cutthroat. Thief. But you may call me Daitengu.

"Daitengu" (died 1582) was the name imposed on a Japanese man who lived at Arima Onsen in Harima during the late Sengoku period. Deluding himself to be the incarnation of a yōkai called the Daitengu (大天狗, lit. 'greater tengu'), he attacked and killed any wanderers who passed him, leading locals to believe that the spirit actually haunted the area.[1]

Biography[edit | edit source]

The locals of Harima heard the shrills and screeches of a "red-faced" yōkai presiding in Arima Onsen, which led them to travel to the monk-turned-demon hunter Mamushi. However, Mamushi was fed up with answering these rumors as they mainly concluded to be exaggerations of people's imaginations.[1]

In 1582, fortunately, Mamushi met the Kakushiba ikki members Fujibayashi Naoe and Yasuke and asked them to investigate all this yōkai claim. During their investigation in Harima, they arrived at an onsen and discovered the "daitengu" surrounded by the corpses of those unlucky enough to have met him. Confronting the man, they fought and promptly killed him. Ending his unusual terror, they then acquired the katana Daitengu's Feather from his personal effects.[1]
