Fūjin

[1][2] He is portrayed as a terrifying wizardly demon, resembling a red-haired, green-skinned humanoid wearing a tiger or leopard skin loincloth/kilt, carrying a large bag of winds (風袋; Kazebuko/Fūtai) on his shoulders.

In Japanese art, the deity is often depicted together with Raijin, the god of lightning, thunder and storms.

According to Kojiki, Fūjin and his brother Raijin were born from Izanami after she died.

When Izanagi went down to Yomi to retrieve his wife, he saw her as a decaying corpse covered with demons.

However, a few demons and oni escaped the underworld through a crack in the boulder, including Fūjin and his brother Raijin.
