Today’s reach into the Inktober tupperware container brought out Tengu!

These have always been a favorite of mine one because they’re cool and two because I like crows and corvids in general. So because of that despite the big nosed  red-faced winged imp is nearly as common for me it’s always been about the crow like Karasu-tengu!

And since once you get past all the stuff associating them with ninjas and martial arts most of the good stories about them seem to involve them trying to corrupt or merely harass monks here’s a sketch of them casing the joint before they make their move!
