    tengu

    天狗 てんぐ 烏天狗 カラステング 白狼天狗 大天狗

    A Japanese traditional youkai, generally seeing wearing the clothing of the yamabushi - practitioners of Shugendou (tokin hat, yuigesa/pom-pommed sash, shakujou, etc). They are also seen wearing tengu-geta and wielding hauchiwa.

    Usually they are depicted as humanoid ravens/crows (or red-skinned humans with unusually long noses and wings, as seen on tengu masks), though there are also those that look like white wolves (likely a remnant of the original Chinese tiangou, from which the kanji is taken from). They are associated with conceitedness and trickery.
