Profile
Origin
Daidarabotchi (大座法師 Daidarabotchi, Big Seated Monk) is a giant humanoid yōkai in Japanese folklore, and in some depictions, resembles a bald monk. He is credited for shaping the geography of Japan, having erected mountains from soil, valleys from his long strides, and lakes from his footprints. Daidarabotchi is also said to be insatiably curiosity, once using a giant scale to compare the weight of Mt. Fuji to Mt. Tsukuba, which resulted in Mt. Tsukuba's peak splitting apart and creating its unique twin summit. To expand his territory, Daidarabotchi used ropes to pull land from Silla, a kingdom in the eastern Korean peninsula, and append it to Japan.
Design
Daidarabotchi is a tall humanoid made of gray stone with mechanical arms and hands. His face consists of a white mask with glowing yellow eyes and a gemstone on his forehead.
