ONIJORO "You lookin' fer mah old man?" Loosely translated as 'Oni's prostitute', you have essentially married (or are at least shacking up with) a demon. Oni like women, and they don't have to be pretty, or talented, or nice. No, Oni look for vicious, mentally damaged outcasts who can take some serious physical and mental abuse. Outcasts who become more and more like the Oni over time. Guess those damn uppity villagers will regret fucking with you now huh?
BECOMING AN ONIJORO Being the paramour of a demon and surviving is all that's necessary.

Ki Pool:Oshoku (Ex):Enduring Will (Ex):An Oni's Strength (Ex):Oni-Tsuma (Ex): PLAYING AN ONIJORO You've never liked people, probably because they never liked you. When that Oni offered you the chance to be his woman or die you took it. Not that you were afraid of death but some part of you recognized this might finally be your chance to become something other than the local whipping post. After all Demon's have power, so by logical extension their wives do as well.
Combat: You were always pretty tough, and your hubby knocking you around a bit seems to be making you tougher. You kinda like it but you'd never tell anyone you're a closet masochist. Especially since it seems to be making you more like the Oni...
Advancement: You're pissed off at the world and your goal is power quite frankly. Not social or political or spiritual power, but the power to bust some heads. You want to see the world burn.
Resources: You have your husband if he's willing to help out (and present), and what you can scrounge up or take by force. Theoretically you may have villagers come to you for aid in matters no one else could be seen doing.
ONIJORO IN THE WORLD "Something wrong with that girl..." The world avoids you in fear. You may have a reputation as a witch or a healer or an abortionist that draws people to consult you. You try to think of this as an opportunity for blackmail and money, and choke back the hate. Money is needed sometimes, even if you do love ripping peoples arms off.
Daily Life: You like to spend your days terrorizing the people who used to mess with you. Burning their crops, converting their daughters to lesbianism, peeing on their cattle. Harmless pranks really. At least in your view.
Notables:
Organizations: Onijoro are universally loners when their husbands aren't around. They pretty much despise the rest of the world, their own kind included.
NPC Reaction NPC's think of you as a monster, but the more hypocritical and evil ones see you as an opportunity. You try to make them regret it if they choose to take advantage.
ONIJORO IN THE GAME This class assumes one of the PC's is the paramour of a powerful evil being intent on corrupting her to become more like himself. COuld make for party conflicts...
Adaptation: This could actually be done for horror campaigns as well.
Encounters: Onijoro are usually encountered in huts or shrines far from civilized places, or on mountains near the village they were cast out from.
Sample Encounter EL 12: The PC's encounter what they assume is a deserted brothel/gambling house only to find a very healthy, vulgar woman inside. Some of them have misgivings about this, and they will be proven correct.
