→New Names for Old Monsters
Japanese folklore already has a lot of monsters, including several hundred that were illustrated. While many of these monsters are unique to Japan, many of them have equivalents in the Monster Manuals. Below is a list of traditional Japanese monsters that were created already, with their Monster Manual names in parenthesis, as well as some variant rules to make them more authentic.
:'''Tsukumogami:''' Tsukumogami can be one of two things: [[SRD:Animated Object|Animated objects]] or [[SRD:Intelligent Items|intelligent items]]. In folkloric terms, they are items, objects, and artifacts that have reached their 100th birthday and thus becomes alive and aware. Magic items and regular items become [[SRD:Intelligent Items|intelligent]], and things that cannot become intelligent items instead become [[SRD:Animated Object|animated objects]]. [[SRD:Animated Object|Animated Objects]] are considered to have an intelligence score of whatever is appropriate for the item (a sophisticated musical instrument will be more intelligent then an animated stirrup). Some tsukumogami also take class levels.
