The mahoyama no oni or jade oni is a very strange but magically gifted oni. These powerful oni come in otherwordly colors like electric blue, jade green or dark purple and their skin has an interesting luster to it so they appear as if they were carved from semi-precious and polished stones. The creature has two heads, one with two eyes and the other with three eyes and their eyes can be bright exotic colors like gold, purple, blue or crimson red. They are built like other oni with a strong and powerful humanoid body with horns and thick shaggy manes and so forth but they have two smaller, weaker arms tucked inside their chest, generally folded in relaxation. These "wizard" arms can actually cast spells while their much larger and brutish oni arms wield large dadao sabers so they can fight just as easily as they can cast spells and they are able to mix spellcasting with melee combat.
Where the red oni are aggressive, rebellious, carefree and warlike and the blue oni are calm, disciplined and judgmental the jade oni are strange, aloof, eccentric and have a comedic or tricksy nature. They enjoy speaking in riddles, reading books and making cave paintings, though generally of slaughter and victory. They seek counsel with tricksters, yokai and uraga but also seem to love drinking with the other oni and smoking water pipes. Being oni they still love slaughter, banditry and even ravaging the occasional geisha or horse for laughs, but they are poets among cannibals and sometimes wish to have their magical and artistic expression be respected by their disdainful brethren.
