The Risen are easy to ignore, slow, brainless and weak. But soldiers across the Jwar Isles are realising you ignore them at your peril. Sheer numbers allow them to swarm opponents; together they can bog a far superior warrior down. It is most disheartening as well as exhausting to strike an opponent the killing blow only to see them rise again. A true tool of Yurei, those that wield The Risen pose a new threat to life in Jwar.

Nobody knows what he did to be punished so, some even say he cut off his own wings, but the fact that he has perfected a technique of throwing his axes at his enemies wings may show he wants others to suffer as he does. Even the most stoic and reserved of Tengu can become enraged at his mere presence. In combat his bargain with Yurei wards away enemy blows whilst punishing opponents for trying to hurt him.

The latest slave of Yurei, having been raised by Kato ‘the puppet master’ now takes on any and all opponents of the Cult. Enemies that fall before his onslaught become the gruesome tools of his trade.

The Gaki are cursed, once greedy and conceited men, now damned to lurk in the dark. Constantly driven by the gnawing pain of a hunger that cannot be satisfied no matter to volume of meat this foul Yokai consumes. Those rare peasant who survive the steel like claws and razor sharp teeth talk of a cloak of dense, cold mist enveloping them before the assault

A man of excesses, Gengo was attracted to the Cult to satisfy his more base urges. He finds the sacrifice of others particularly appealing. One shouldn’t underestimate the difficulty in taking such a big man down.

Gok’s fate was sealed before he was even conceived. His harsh upbringing combined with his inability to learn, left him as a ideal recruit for the Cult of Yurei, that and the fact that he is quite formidable. His mutating mass, and he has a lot of it, allows Gok to adapt to best any opponent. The disease ridden, body filled cart he insists on hauling also serves as a grotesque distraction in battle for his opponents.

Harionago is a truly terrifying addition to the ranks of the Cult. An ancient evil that for generations has preyed on unwary travellers across the Jwar Isles, her new found purpose to further the goals of Yurei is a frightening prospect.

The secret and powerful art of soul trapping was thought lost for generations until Kato was judged worthy to know its dark secret. Yurei’s cruel mockery of the living, their anguished masks taunt the living for his amusement their fear adding fuel to his dark fire. They are puppets to their dark masters will.

Where she comes from, who she is or who she was will probably never be known. The chance of anything being left of the person she used to be seems unlikely. Unquestioning, she ambles along thoughtlessly, slowly and yet relentlessly to do the bidding of her dark masters. No one is safe from the depravities of the Cult.

These abominations of undead are the latest creation of the warped and twisted minds of the Cult Shugenja. Lumbering across the battlefield with single minded purpose, to bring death and suffering to the lives of the living. Those brave enough to stand against the cruel mockeries of their former friends and love ones are thanked with a foul toxic substance spraying from their wounds, eating away flesh and muscle. Should their foes manage to bring one of these puppets down reports talk of them swelling like rotten fruit and exploding all over an opponent as one last insult.

The Kairai are a cruel and mocking reminder to the living of the dark and twisted powers of the cult. The vile predicament forced upon the living soldiers of the Jwar isles as they are ordered to hack down their brothers, sisters, fathers and mothers. Transformed into mindless puppets of Yurei. Tadao stands apart from most Kairai; in battle he displays startling speed and agility for an animated husk, some report him seeming almost alive, not demonstrating the usual awkward gait of the un-living. In death, just as in life Tadao wields a solid steel tetsubo synonymous with his former clan, cracking bone and breaking the spirit of the living with grim satisfaction.

How Mo Ises was drawn into the cult is unknown. He is though a deadly foe, often misjudged by his opponents they remain unaware of the threat he poses until they feel the cold of steel at their backs. The power of his words have been enhanced by whatever bargain he made with Yurei.

The Komuso monks are usually a happy sight for the villagers and peasants, when these nomadic musicians come to town it is an opportunity to down tools and sit and listen to the sweet music played in exchange for a meal and a warm bed. Mokoti has fallen to the seductive charms of Yurei and whilst his playing is exquisite his motivations are far darker. The gentle and light music hides a twisted a corrupt whisper from the dark, bending the minds of the weak and vulnerable to His will.

There are none left alive that could name the Orphan. Whether it was a trait in the boy before, he was corrupted by Yurei, matters little, his envy leads to destruction wherever he roams. Jealousy of a blind beggar led him to take his own eyes, and now he unleashes Envy to take whatever he feels should be rightfully his. Any skill or attribute an opponent has, the Orphan wants and Envy will take and use on his behalf.

“Rotten to his core,” was how Shichiro’s own mother described him, even before he left with the last of the family's meagre savings. Joining the cult wasn’t chance it was inevitable for someone like him. He relishes killing but prefers a well-placed tanto in the back over the risk of direct confrontation.

Little is known about the origins of Nezumi Kun, even the scholars of the Blue library could only guess at the occult rituals and black magic used to create this “Son of Nezumi”. The savage Yokai appears more wild and feral than its “father”, striking from nowhere, only a rank stench left to mark its passage before it scuttles away into the darkness. Waiting and lurking in the shadows waiting for instruction from a faceless unseen evil.

Shokuji eats until he can eat no more. Is it hunger? Perhaps it was in the beginning, when he was a starving orphan, sleeping rough and alone on the streets. But over time, it’s now more compulsion than anything else. He may consume his weight in food every day, but he is empty inside no matter how much he eats. The Kami of Gluttony is now bound to him, twinned to his soul. Shokuji unleashes Gluttony to fight his foes but has a far more sinister trick up his grease and sauce stained sleeve. Shokuji can instill the same ravenous hunger that drives him into others, but with one twisted compulsion, they crave the flesh of humans and will stop at nothing to get it. Young or old, cooked or raw, matters not to those suffering from this affliction. Even if cured one day, the sheer memory of past acts is enough to leave a bad taste in their mouths.

Once Gluttony is summoned, it can eat an enemy model whole then slowly digest them throughout the game. However, Shokuji’s instill Gluttony Ki Feat is just as impressive. It allows you to control a model, but more importantly, if you can cause damage with the controlled model, you do not remove the control marker; it wants to eat more! With the correct choice of enemy model and clever use of these fell activations, you could control the model for the entire game.

Of the orphans lost to the void Souta is the perfect example of the physical manifestation of the spirit squatting within him, twisting and corrupting its host. Some say the children were already on the path to destruction others that they are merely innocent victims, lost like so many in the battle between good and evil, life and death. Souta is the embodiment of Sloth even when the spirit is not invoked. The Sloth is as slow and inevitable a killer as the void from which it came, victims held helplessly in the grip of fear or some unseen tether, those brave enough to confront the horror find themselves enveloped by its nothingness.

The orphan cuts a miserable figure; many unwary strangers have rushed to the aid of the seemingly vulnerable and needy little girl. Those that do, more often than not, fail to survive their act of charity. Wrath materialises as if from thin air, channelling its rage, it’s very essence into destroying the adversaries of the Cult.

A Samurais' honor is his life. Those foolish few to betray the ancient code are cursed. Trapped and tormented by their weakness they linger on, becoming twisted mockeries of their former selves. These evil spirits are a fearsome and tireless servants of Yurei.
