Yokai (Jade Court Idea)

[lordoracle]

Since there is precious little information about the Jade Court, I had an idea on how to utilize them in a campaign. Rather than have the JC directly involve themselves, use various creatures from Asian Mythologies as their agents.

I was wondering if anyone has pursued this line of thought and what creatures might have been statted?

There are a whole bunch of different takes on the Jade Court on the wiki.

The fourth link there resembles the japanese nukekubi. Dunno about the others.

There are also some Jiang-Shi stats here, some Tengu stats here, some Tanuki stats  here and some Kappa stats here.

Thanks. This should be a big help.

I am playing in a game set in Montreal, and the Jade Court there is based on Pennanggalan and/or Manananggal myths (option D on the list above). It works very well.
