Those eso thread anons that spiralled into the Discord Servers lost their edge, they've grown disinterested and there's no discourse anymore, such as Okinanon. Return to the origin, /jp/.Thread discussion starter:Bad and Good fortune

>>51247454Chiyari Tenkajin is based off the Tenkajin, a floating fireball known for sucking blood. In her original legend, her fireball form was slashed, and when tracked down she was discovered to have changed into a horse-sized Japanese marten.https://en.touhouwiki.net/wiki/Chiyari_Tenkajin#Originhttps://youkaitama.seesaa.net/article/271093027.htmlThis story closely resembles many legends of naguals in Mexico and Central America: A strange animal is wounded, it is tracked down, and then it is found with a matching wound in a different form. Only the tenkajin was found to have a true form of a marten, while the naguals all had forms of humans. Two such accounts can be found in this historical diary of an English traveller to America. Similar stories happen to this day.

Expert shapeshifters could turn themselves into fireballs, like the tenkajin. Shapeshifters were also known to sometimes steal people's blood.https://www.gutenberg.org/files/26426/26426-h/26426-h.htm#section_29https://www.gutenberg.org/files/26426/26426-h/26426-h.htm#section_3Fireballs were also known to suck peoples blood during the UFO attacks on Colares Brazil and the investigation by the military called Operacao Prato. These were called 'chupa-chupa' or suckers, and the events in Colares were not the only time they had been seen.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mr1NrnsdY5Ihttps://www.ufoinsight.com/ufos/cover-ups/1977-colares-island-incident#The_Chupa-Chupa_The_BloodsuckerChiyari Tenkajin is ostensibly also based off the similarly-named chupacabra. Some theorize that the chupacabra was actually somebody's nagual.Could Chiyari Tenkajin be a nagual shapeshifter, just one that began life as a giant marten or badger rather than a human? Do you believe such creatures might be real?
