Yo-kai Medallium Bio: A huge, snakelike Yo-kai with three bigmouthed heads and skin thicker than an elephant’s. Aim for the eye in its mouth!
Slimamander appears as a three-headed creature resembling a reptile, with purple warty skin and blue lips with appendages resembling eyelashes on each of its mouths. Each mouth also sports a long drooling tongue, and out of any of them its single eye may pop out. It has thick legs with four digits on each foot, and a purple liquid seeps out of its body.
TRIVIA
- “Slimamander” is a portmanteau of slime and salamander. “Mitsumata-nozuchi” translates as “three-pronged wild hammer”.
- Slimamander may be based on the nozuchi (野槌, “wild hammer”), a snake youkai with a thick, hairy body resembling a mallet in shape, and no features on its head save for a large mouth (and sometimes tiny eyes). It feeds on small wildlife and travels down the mountains it inhabits by biting on its tail and tumbling down slopes. It’s very aggressive towards humans, and will roll down onto anyone disturbing its nest and inflict a nasty, painful bite on them. It is one of Japan’s most ancient youkai species, and is considered to be more of a mountain kami than an actual youkai.
