CHARACTER: Dokugakuji (Sha Jien)
CANON: Saiyuki
GOD: Kshitigarbha (Sanskrit Kṣitigarbha, Chinese: 地藏; pinyin: Dìzàng; Japanese: 地蔵; rōmaji: Jizō) PRONOUNCED: K'SHIH-TIH-GUHR-BUH
MYTHOLOGY: Buddhism
POWER: Afterlife Traveler - In addition to a Noragami God's normal teleportation powers, Kshitigarbha's incarnations can open gateways to the Afterlife realms - Hell, Purgatory, Limbo, or Heaven/Near Shore - and select a general area on the map to appear, not just at random although this can be interfered with. They are also not treated as outsiders in Hell, Purgatory, Limbo, or Heaven/Near Shore; they can walk freely in these places and not get attacked like a trespasser would - unless their own actions provoke someone of course. If they guide an Afterlife dweller from Hell, Purgatory, or Limbo to Heaven/Near Shore - must be holding their hand - then that dweller is transitioned to a Near Shore dweller, or "forgiven."
FOLLOWERS: 6755
TEMPLE: The Shrine of Kshitigarbha's Vow
Leading down into a small but lush valley, there is a walkway adorned with lanterns and jizo statues:

In the center of the valley, there is still lots of greenery, but of note is the statue there, representing the descent into Hell that is more about what someone will feel like when they come out of it -- the beauty of the Far Shore and Near Shore by comparison:

SHINKI:

1. Soulless named "Meji" (目), Vessel Name: "Mokki". Meji looks like an adult man with his Shinki character partially written on top of his sealed right eye. More TBA later.

   Vessel Form: Dokugakuji's canon broadsword.
   Shinki Power: Dokugakuji designates just 1 target as the subject of Mokki's protection. That target takes half damage from any sort of attacks, but the damage is routed to Dokugakuji instead.



2. Alluka Zoldyck (軽), Vessel Name: "Keiki" located on left palm

   Vessel Form: double-sided pendant on leather cord
   Shinki Power: Pendant Wishes



3. Soulless named "Masaji" (款), Vessel Name: "Kanki" located over her left breast. Masaji was once a soulless for Shun Kurosaki. When Shun told Doku that he'd dismissed her, he went looking for "a young woman with long black hair, about average in height and weight" and found the temple where Soulless shinki reside between god assignments.

   Vessel Form: Nightwatchman's lantern
   Shinki Power: Removes status effects like poisoning, physical illness,
   and magical blinding (such as in Darkness) for the 5 foot area around the holder.



4. Erk (責), Vessel Name: "Enki" located on the palm of his right hand

   Vessel Form: a ring
   Shinki Power: Anima magic
