Design

Raiju appears as a feline demon shaped out of bright yellow lightning. Its head resembles that of a puma, with pupilless blue eyes and a single large eyelash on each eye. Additionally, its whiskers are shaped like bolts of electricity. Its shoulders are extremely close to its head, and its two legs end in three-toed paws with large, hook-like claws. In motion, Raiju is usually depicted as perpetually crackling with electricity.
