History Characters / Onmyoji2016SSRShikigamiNToZ

* BalefulPolymorph: He afflicts this onto his own teammates, providing a hefty boost to damage and speed while rendering them impervious to damage, but also killing and permanently transforming them into nagas after two turns. The nagas aid in his attacks and inherit all of their "host" shikigami's stats, with some buffs coming from Orochi himself.

** Yamata-no-Orochi has probably the most complex and conditional kit out there, giving even the Medicine Seller a run for his money. Taking full advantage of his abilities require careful management of his nagas ''and'' the BalefulPolymorph of a specific number of your own units, which sounds counterproductive on paper, but with Awakening and skill upgrades, he will unlock a plethora of hidden powers that complement his playstyle when he's the last man standing. He also takes some time to ramp up, but once he's managed to gain a solid footing he'll keep snowballing like that, due to the nature of his enhanced kit and utility of his nagas, which makes him a powerful shikigami to use in [=PvP=] or against world bosses, but with mixed results overall in regular farming.

* CostumePorn: His clothing is almost reminiscent of a Noh costume.

* NiceShoes: All of his appearances have him wearing quite elaborate and ridiculously tall ''geta'' that wouldn't look too out of place in a platform shoes collection. Slightly subverted with his second and third skins where they aren't ''as'' tall, but still.

* AbsoluteCleavage: Her top is open all the way down to her waist [[VaporWear and she wears no bra]].
** ImpossiblyLowNeckline: Swaps to this once evolved.

* AbsoluteCleavage: His skin has him wear a kimono with its collar wide open, revealing his shoulders and chest.

* AsianFoxSpirit

* CelestialBody: Her legs give way to a dark blue starry night sky right at the top of her thighs, but her clothes cover anything more. Her post-evolution skin extends this to her entire right leg and left arm, but her exclusive Sleepless Night skin takes it UpToEleven by making her entire [[{{Fanservice}} (naked)]] body out of black starry cosmos.

* BrokeTheRatingScale: While the stat rankings normally don't mean all that much (the difference between an A and a B is usually irrelevant compared to the amount of stats shikigami gain from their soul sets), Orochi is the first shikigami in the game to have an ''[[UpToEleven SS]]'' rank for a stat, with an unbelievable ATK score of '''4074''' when evolved and maxed out at level 40.

* NiceHat: The absurdly tall black hat she wears.

An ancient spirit and an ancestor of Vampira.

** Made one with Orochi to free himself. [[spoiler:As a side effect of following Orochi's instructions however, he has absorbed too much power to the point that he risks becoming an AlmightyIdiot, though he considers this a fair price to pay.]]

Exactly who you'd expect – the humanoid form of the eight-headed monster. A malicious Takama-ga-hara god formerly sealed between worlds. Tropes about Yamata-no-Orochi not specific to his [=SSR=] form can be found [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/OnmyojiRPGSupporting here]].

Exactly who you'd expect – the humanoid form of the eight-headed monster. A malicious Takama-ga-hara god formerly sealed between worlds.

* AndIMustScream: Sealed between two dimensions for ''many centuries'', 'nuff said.

* TheChessmaster: He has been pulling strings for centuries to bring about the calamities happening now.

* CoDragons: He was once served by six sins, who he taught to prey upon the minds of others. Collectively, they were known as the Seven Evil Gods.
* TheCorruptor: He and his Six Evil Gods tempt mortals to sin.

* EvilSoundsDeep: He manages to sound both soft-spoken and intimidatingly-deep at the same time due to his VoiceOfTheLegion.
* ExpendableClone: Remember the massive hydra-like boss that you keep running into in the story and Soul dungeons? It is technically a defective clone of himself, spawned by the power of life creation he granted to [[spoiler:Minamoto-no-Yorimitsu]]. Although he pities the creature for its lack of individuality, the great power it holds is his key to breaking the boundaries between worlds, potentially allowing him to return to the mortal world in all his glory.

* FallenAngel: He was once one of the gods of Takama-ga-hara, but ultimately rebelled against the TopGod, Amaterasu.

* GodOfEvil: Orochi is often referred to as the Evil God.

* IntriguedByHumanity: In a very twisted way, he ''loves'' humans, finding them far more fascinating than the boring city of the gods.

* {{Sadist}}: He enjoys watching mortals suffer and struggle.
* SadlyMythtaken: The in-game Yamata-no-Orochi has a very obvious snake AnimalMotif going on, complete with scales and [[PoisonousPerson venom-based attacks]], and the provided lore depicts him as a divine snake god. The actual Yamata-no-Orochi in Shinto religion is a ''dragon'', albeit a decidedly ''serpentine'' one.
* SealedEvilInACan: The gods imprisoned him in the VoidBetweenTheWorlds. Between the [[spoiler:Minamoto's {{Human Sacrifice}}s, Seimei's decision to split himself, and Yao Bikuni's deliberate attempts to free him]], the seal is weakening.

* TimeAbyss: He is one of the gods that shaped the world when it was first created.

* {{Bishonen}}: Just look at him.

* {{Physical God}}s: The official justification for their unique acquisition method is that Ryōmenbotoke are gods, and therefore are too powerful to be summoned and subverted like the usual shikigami. [[GameplayAndStorySegregation They do not live up to this hype during gameplay]].

* [[WellDoneSonGuy Well Done Daughter Girl]]: One of her main motivations for trying to control the tides to protect her people was to earn a single word of praise from her mother, the Mermaid Queen, but all her mother ever told her was to stop trying because that wasn't her fate.

* [[WasOnceAMan Was Once A Woman]]: Shiranui used to be a beautiful songstress, before she rejected the advances of a lord, who slandered her by denouncing her as a demon and ordering her to be killed. When she was shot in the heart, she pulled the arrow out, only for butterflies rather than blood to spurt from the wound, as she ascended to become a spirit.

* {{Seer|s}}: His foreseeing ability was what he used to help his village and was also what sent him ''literally'' to hell.

* [[BigLittleBrother Big Little Sister]]: Despite being a CoolBigSis to Ōtakemaru, she herself is actually Senhime's ''little'' sister. She's considerably larger and stronger than her big sister, probably because she's a merdragon, rather than a common mermaid.

* {{Bishonen}}: He looks pretty handsome when he loses his mask.

* {{Bishonen}}

* {{Foil}}: With her past revealed, she is this to Onikiri. Both are MasterSwordsman / MasterSwordswoman. Both are ruthless Yokais and respectively served their loyalty to Master Onmyojis with differing personalities - Abe no Seimei and Minamoto no Yorimitsu. Yorimitsu is Onigiri's Master, and is a ManipulativeBastard who has no qualms in causing chaos around Heian-Kyo to further his clan's powers and actually never fully cared about his subjects or Shikigamis. Seimei is Yoto-hime's Master, a [[TheAce very kind and charismatic]] young man who wants to protect Heian-Kyo from chaos and is very loving and protective of his Shikigamis and loved one's. Also, while Onigiri remains as a ruthless Yokai who has no qualms about destroying anything in his path in present-time, Yoto-hime chose to become a benevolent Yokai in the end, in service to her Master Seimei and protect the people of Heian-Kyo, as well.

* PantyShot: Her underwear can be clearly seen in all of her appearances.

* BandageBabe: Pre- or post-Awakening, he's wrapped in lots of bloodied bandages.

* BandageBabe: Her second skin, Battle-Forged Warrior. Aside from her boots, a shredded jacket (with bizarrely long sleeves) and some random pieces of samurai armour, the [[{{Sarashi}} bandages wrapped around her torso]] are [[{{Fanservice}} the only thing she's wearing]].

* {{Kitsune}}

* RapunzelHair: Her hair is so long that it flows down to her ankles, then ''turns back up again'' to end around her thighs.

* ScrewDestiny: Her main goal in life. She did not inherit merdragon blood like Suzuka Gozen, and therefore does not have the power to control the tides and bring life back to the Sea of Eternity. Her mother, the Queen, lost the power to do so (or more precisely, [[spoiler:was [[KillAndReplace Killed and Replaced]]]]), and Suzuka vanished long ago, leaving Senhime desperate to do so in their stead, despite the Queen insisting that this wasn't her fate and that she would only suffer for it.

* EvilGod

* DangerouslyShortSkirt: Dangerously Short [[KimonoFanservice Kimono]], rather.

* DangerouslyShortSkirt: And a gratuitous helping of {{Panty Shot}}s to go with it.

* SealedEvilInACan: He is imprisoned in the VoidBetweenTheWorlds. Between the [[spoiler:Minamoto's {{Human Sacrifice}}s, Seimei's decision to split himself, and Yao Bikuni's deliberate attempts to free him]], the seal is weakening.

* BeautyMark: One below the left eye in his skin.

* DealWithTheDevil: Made one with Orochi to free himself. [[spoiler:As a side effect of following Orochi's instructions however, he has absorbed too much power to the point that he risks becoming an AlmightyIdiot, though he considers this a fair price to pay.]]
