Shuten Doji酒呑童子
An Oni traitor originally known as Ura who has made his lair atop Mount Oe. Transformed by Dokyo into a fearsome Genma, he survives by allying himself with the strong, and has a thorough disdain for those he sees as weaker than himself. Drinking alcohol not only heals him, it makes him stronger, so he should be prevented from indulging his habit at all costs.
