What Roams the Red Streets I

The grifix walked the dark streets, looking for some place to help him take his mind off of his daily struggles. He tried to peek into the entertainment houses, as he always did, hoping to catch a glimpse of what was going on inside... but as always he was unsuccessful, due to the red curtains covering the windows of every house. The curtains only let a little light pass through, filling the dark street with an eerie, red tint. 

"Guess that's why they call it the Red Light District" - he told himself.

He heard all sorts of stories about this place, about strange apparitions roaming the streets... But that couldn't be true, could it? Perhaops it was just the strange light that made grifix see weird stuff. And yet, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was following him...

Hello everyone! Welcome to a new event we'll be hosting, which will introduce a bunch of new stuff on our website, which I hope you'll enjoy!!

As we are now in what can be called the spooky season... This event will be about the strange apparitions roaming the Entertainment District, called Yokai! So please make sure you read the page about them first so you can understand everything: Yokai and Apparitions

The event will consist of three challenges spreat over six weeks (two weeks each). Each challenge will have special participation rewards and a classament, where you can earn points depending on your rank. At the end, a new classament will be made where every person's points will be added, and the winner, along with the following two spots, will earn special rewards!

THE FIRST CHALLENGE IS...

COME UP WITH A yokai THAT is FRIENDLY towards grifix.!

If it is HOSTILE or NEUTRAL it doesn't count.

Requirements

✦ Yokai are always considered by grifix to be living beings, so no object apparitions please, unless there's an object that's believed to be sentient...?

✦ A drawing representing the yokai, no matter how bad it is. I will NOT judge by artistic skill or quality of the art.

✦ A description of the yokai, including whatever lore you might have on them. I will judge this part.

✦ For extra points, you can design VARIANTS. These would be all the variants the yokai can come in, they can have separate lore, like subspecies, or be purely cosmetic, up to you.

Rules

✦ The first challenge ends on 3rd of October

✦ You can make as many entries as you want!! The more, the better

✦ You can make as many arts as you want for one yokai. You can get extra points for those.

✦ All the entries must be submitted in the gallery in this folder, then linked in a submisssion to this prompt. Use !gallery-tutorial on the discord server for a gallery submission guide (it will be dm-ed to you).

✦ You can talk about the event, collaborate and ask for help from other participants in the #event channel on our discord.

✦ All of the yokai created will remain permanently in the grifixverse! Their lore will be polished, clear images of them will be made and they will all be introduced as FAUNA and PETS on the site. They will also be usable as sphirix shapes (legendary).

✦ Every person that enters this challenge will be rewarded 1 x Koinobori. This is a companion. Companions can be added to characters and they drop items which can be used to claim the KITSUNE MASK award, which will reward a loot table with many goodies (to be added).
