	Depictions of oni vary widely but usually portray them as hideous, gigantic ogre-like creatures with sharp claws, wild hair, and two long horns growing from their heads. They are humanoid for the most part, but occasionally, they are shown with unnatural features such as odd numbers of eyes or extra fingers and toes. Their skin may be any number of colors, but red and blue are particularly common. They are often depicted wearing tiger-skin loincloths and carrying iron clubs called kanabō (金棒?). This image leads to the expression "oni with an iron club" (鬼に金棒 oni-ni-kanabō?), that is, to be invincible or undefeatable.<br>		Depictions of oni vary widely but usually portray them as hideous, gigantic ogre-like creatures with sharp claws, wild hair, and two long horns growing from their heads.

	Generally half-human, and always the product of rape, Half-Oni are basically Oni with human-like features. They are generally born from Lady Oni (as human women SELDOM survive mating with an Oni), and have the softer features of the females, whether male or female. They are otherwise entirely like Oni, and are not treated differently, nor are they particularly 'nicer' or more humane. They share the Oni aggression and savagery, but none of the Half-Oni are evil Savage Oni or Oni Mages.<br>		Generally half-human, and always the product of rape, Half-Oni are basically Oni with human-like features.

	From Oni which learn high end martial arts, to Oni who emulate the Samurai of the [[Rankai Lands]], Oni Fighters are incredibly powerful and usually take positions of leadership among their tribes, due to their skills and magical acumen, which is focused in their ability to fight. As mentioned before, Oni in Rankai are closer to the spiritual nature of the land than the Ogres' Metamagical nature, and this allows them to access their innate magics through their martial skills.<br>		From Oni which learn high end martial arts, to Oni who emulate the Samurai of the [[Rankai Lands]], Oni Fighters are incredibly powerful and usually take positions of leadership among their tribes, due to their skills and magical acumen, which is focused in their ability to fight.

Racial Traits

@@ Line 30: / Line 30: @@
 ===Racial Traits===
 '''Superhuman Strength''': As mentioned above, Oni are incredibly strong. Well beyond the range of any other humanoid, and it shows. They have been known to tear even the strongest of Youkai apart with their bare hands, and are reputed to launch boulders at their opponents without the benefits of catapults. Most creatures short of elephants and rhinoceroses cannot match an Oni in battle.<br>
 '''Natural Armor''': Between their incredibly thick skin and ridiculous musculature, Oni are able to take blows from just about anything and shrug it off. Short swords and smaller weapons, often including arrows, are essentially meaningless in a battle with Oni, and unless aimed at their eye, any other projectile will bounce off with minimal damage. Even stronger weapons can only barely affect them, at least compared to smaller humans. Even their 'fat' is violently resilient, and they heal naturally very well.<br>
@@ Line 37: / Line 36: @@
 '''Sexual Dimorphism''': Ogres exist all over the world. Most in Rankai look like brutish, massive humanoids, but Lady Oni look far more humanoid, even attractive, to humans, but are, at the core, the same beasts as the other [[Ogres]]. Another trait from this is that any child born from an Oni parent is an Oni, whatever the other species is.<br>
 '''Magical Species''': Oni are born of magic. That is why some of them are born incredibly intelligent and gifted with natural magic that makes all but the Sages of the world green with envy. They are going to be the leaders of their kind, and everyone in the race will instinctively follow them. This applies to their females, as well. Those born as Mages are smarter and more powerful than others.<br>
