Inktober (wayyyy behind) no. 8: Harionna aka the “barbed woman”. A frightening female ghoul that has the appearance of a beautiful woman with sharp barbed hair. She has direct control of her hair and uses it to ensnare men…😱⛩🇯🇵#nikkiabregoart #DatArtistLife #copic #yokai #japanesespirit #Japan #harionna #harionago #moleskine #moleskinesketchbook #inktober #inkoctober2017 #inktobercatchup #artistsoninstagram #art #drawing

So, I’ve just learned about this yōkai. This is basically how Kēisuke learns to use his hair and I cannot believe it’s taken me this long to learn about this yōkai.

[lpbestiary]

In Japanese mythology, Harionago is a female yōkai whose name translates as "barbed woman." She is depicted as a beautiful woman with very long hair. Her hair ends in barbs, which she can control to ensnare men.

Harionago is said to wander the roads of the Ehime prefecture at night, looking for single young men. When she comes across one, she will smile enticingly at them. If he smiles back, Harionago will attack him with her hair, tearing him apart and feasting on his remains.

Hari-onago

[The hari-onago is yet another yokai that was statted by myself and Paizo separately. See their version here. There’s is a much higher CR than mine, so the two could probably comfortably co-exist within a campaign. Just call one “harionna” or something]

Hari-onago CR 2 NE Undead This beautiful pale-skinned woman grins playfully behind her well-manicured hand. Her hair is long and flows nearly to the ground, each strand ending in a tiny barb.

Hari-onago are the undead shades of women whose vanity led to the ruin of their lives and the lives of others. They retain their beauty even in undeath—what signs of decay they express are subtle and typically concealed with makeup and perfumes. Hari-onago are more social than the typical undead creature and live within human societies, the better to attract attention. Hari-onago crave constant flattery and praise and delight in their appearances causing jealousy and infidelity. Those who are foolish enough to succumb to their charms are strung along on promises for months before being brutally slaughtered.

In combat, hari-onago fight with sharpened nails and their deadly barbed hair. This hair is used to ensnare and torment victims. The results of a hari-onago attack are gruesome to behold, and often interpreted as the handiwork of a mortal maniac. Hari-onago are infuriated by laughter, interpreting it as being aimed at them regardless of its true intentions, and may lash out violently at a laughing man regardless of the setting or consequences. Hari-onago sometimes live together and form acting companies, geisha houses or other social groups in which to spin their deceitful webs. These hari-onago publicly act friendly to one another, but scheme constantly to gain an advantage over their “sisters”. A hari-onago conforms to the dimensions of a human woman, and always wears her hair long.

A hari-onago cannot use its hair lash attack when it has a target entangled, and can only entangle creatures of Large or smaller size. The escape DC is Strength based, and includes a racial +4 bonus for the Strength check DC.

Harionna

[itsinuyashabrasil-blog]

Hari-onagu (針女子) ou Harionna (針女) 

É uma mulher, extremamente bonita e encantadora tirando o fato de que as pontas dos cabelos são ganchos afiados.

Ela vaga pelas estradas da província de Ehime em Shikoku em busca de vítimas e sua história surgiu como uma lenda local que se espalhou nacionalmente. Aqui no ocidente, essa youkai se apresenta para nós por personagens nos animes InuYasha e Nurarihyon no Mago. A lenda diz que quando ela encontra um rapaz, ela vai rir dele e, se o jovem se atreve a rir de volta, o disfarce da Harionna vai cair seu e com seu cabelo farpado ela o atacará.
