Re: Best Roleplay nation
Yomi is always fun, because yeah they're supposed to be evil demons, but they're also the underdogs. They're also so inept that you can't really expect rule by them to be as harsh as, say, Hinnom or R'lyeh, or even some of the human Nations.
I always imagine them failed Mongols, living on a barren plateau somewhere in upper Mongolia, the demon kings constantly *****ing about the weather and their latest defeat, and then halfheartedly intimidating a lackey or kicking a ko-oni, while the Hannya secretly hoarde all the coal, choicest food, skilled slaves, what have you, for themselves, while running everything from behind the scenes.
The Oni visiting their chambers, whenever the Hannya aren't washing their hair, always wonder why it's so warm in there, why the food tastes so good, etc., but they're just not bright enough to catch on, assuming it must be some kind of "hannya magic".
It's practically a Saturday Morning Cartoon, from the perspective of the "bad guys".
