:OK, I just found it after some more extensive research. ''Wayang Kulit'' are evidently Japanese shadow puppets [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puppet#Shadow_puppet [source<nowiki>]</nowiki>]. This would make sense given its shadow-based ability. The connection is only furthered in that ''Wayang'' is Japanese for ''shadow''. The main question now is whether it's ''Shadowkulit'' or ''Shadow Kulit''. |

Revision as of 16:16, 8 July 2012
I'm sorry, but its name doesn't sound like 'Shadowkuri' to me. More like Shadowcoulit, Shadowculite... Especially in The Dead Magic Island. Please someone, check it and correct if necessary. I might be wrong, as I'm not American and English pronunciation, especially in the words not used in everyday English, are still a bit hard to understand for me. Thanks in advance.

Here's the best I can come up with at the moment:
- Appearance-wise, it looks just like an Oni.
- The Kui, a 1-legged mountain demon from China, sometimes called a rain god.
- Akamata-Kuromata, a Japanese festival
I'm getting nothing on Wikipedia mentioning Kulit, Kulite, Culit, or Coolit. The Coolit page was deleted in 2007.

- OK, I just found it after some more extensive research. Wayang Kulit are evidently Japanese shadow puppets [source]. This would make sense given its shadow-based ability. The connection is only furthered in that Wayang is Japanese for shadow. The main question now is whether it's Shadowkulit or Shadow Kulit.
