(Enlightened) Jirobo, Tempest Tengu

Lore[]

Razor-sharp winds sliced through the thick vegetation in the mountains, where the crow tengu monks of the spirit world would train ardently to attain the coveted title of Tenma. Despite their status as acolytes, they were ruthlessly territorial, setting upon even frail, lost humans who wandered into their domain. However, Jirobo, who boasted the greatest speed of their clan, differed in his affinity for mankind.
