Itaku

Itaku is a Kamitachi yokai from the Ōshū Tōno family who serves as Rikuo's mentor and guardian. He takes the form of an ordinary weasel during the day, but becomes a lethal combatant when wielding his signature sickles. While he is a loyal protector, he holds the same prejudices against Kyoto yokai that are common among his kin, making him a disciplined yet wary warrior.
