Talk:Oni

Species = Demon?
How do we know that? &mdash; Stabber &#x270d; 12:53, 25 April 2006 (CDT)
 * Maybe teh pre-order manual said "Oni are demons of the Canthan continent" or something like that? dunno. -PanSola 16:29, 25 April 2006 (CDT)
 * It may just be an assumption based on the mythological source material. See: Oni (Japanese folklore).  From the article history, it appears that Karlos was the one to add that to the article, so hopefully he recalls the source of that info. --161.88.255.140 16:31, 25 April 2006 (CDT)
 * The Factions Game Manual (yes, my retailer shipped quite early :o) calls them "demonic". It states that their origin and motivation are unknown, though. --84-175 (talk) 17:35, 25 April 2006 (CDT)
 * The fact that it posesses "Demonic Agility" also gives a clue :P --Theonecynic 17:05, 26 April 2006 (CDT)


 * Yes, Demonic Agility is the big giveaway, especially since it's shared by some of the darker critters of the the Deep. --Karlos 14:53, 22 May 2006 (CDT)


 * The use of Demonic Agility is an indication, but far from a compelling proof, just like the use of Turtle Shell is no proof that Kappas are Turtles. I want proof with a weapon of Demonslaying! See Talk:Demon. --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 09:23, 24 May 2006 (CDT)

Split
Oni (Level 16) and Oni (Level 28) if anyone feels like it Skuld  09:19, 22 May 2006 (CDT)


 * I'm for splitting, following the Kappa example. Whether we use the level as suffix can be discussed. We might also use Oni (Standard) and Oni (Keen), considering the level 28 Oni drops Keen Oni Claws. --Tetris L [[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L block]] 09:36, 22 May 2006 (CDT)


 * I fought a low-level Oni on Shing Jea Island. I have no idea where it came from or why (it spawned behind me, in area I'd already cleared) but I still have the collectable item it dropped. Any clues?


 * Was it possibly a Lesser Oni? Those are usually found on Shing Jea. --84-175 (talk) 10:02, 22 May 2006 (CDT)


 * There are level 16 Onis on the eastern side of Shing Jea Island too. --Tetris L [[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L block]] 10:09, 22 May 2006 (CDT)


 * We should also not forget the Oni of the Deep. Afaik the same like the ones found in the Jade Sea and Echovalt Forest, but only lvl 24. --Khan Reaper Kerensky 10:56, 22 May 2006 (CDT)


 * KRK, you happen to know what type of Oni Claws they drop? --[[Image:TurningL sml.gif|Tetris L]] 09:27, 24 May 2006 (CDT)

Anyway ... I plan to split the article, next Monday as the earliest. Veto countdown started! -- 09:27, 24 May 2006 (CDT)
