APPEARANCE: Oni are extremely variable in appearance. Some look nearly identical to humans while others may be monstrous freaks of nature. They all have ties to magic and mysticism- whether this be black magic or more balanced types of magic varies from Oni to Oni.
BACKGROUND: Oni, also commonly referred to as demons, A mystical race with sometimes uncanny abilities, Demons can be born of the Demon Realm or formed / corrupted by strong demonic energies, while others are born from parents just like most other species. Subspecies of Oni also include ghosts, escaped spirits of the dead from Otherworld, and Otherworld's own Ogres who keep the world of the dead in order. Some Oni are good, others are bad, but all of them have the potential to be born with and develop frighteningly strong levels of power.
Age Ranges: Oni: Oni reach adulthood by around 16 years of age, they continue to age at a consistent rate until around their mid twenties and then their ageing begins to slow to a crawl, their general life expectancy is about 500 Years.
Demons: Demons are incredibly difficult to pin down an actual average for 'adulthood' due to the wild variety between types of Demons. Those with near-humanoid apperances tend to be fully grown by around 20 years. Their life expectancy is equally difficult to pin down however it is know they tend to have massive lifespans with the eldest known demons rivaling the Shinjin in lifespan cracking the same 3,000 to 4,000 age range.
