An imposing 75mm scale guardian, this Oni features massive musculature and a menacing three-eyed gaze. Wielding a heavy studded kanabo and wreathed in mystical spirit-smoke, it serves as the ultimate high-threat encounter for any Eastern-inspired tabletop campaign.
A hulking guardian bracing itself to sweep away a group of puny intruders with a single devastating swing of its club.
A powerful boss-level adversary for a mid-level party or an elite guardian/sergeant for a high-level party in an Eastern-inspired campaign.
