Mitsumata

Mitsumata is an enormous serpent bearing three heads, its body marked with numerous scars and its central head severed. During its youth, it suffered persecution due to its unusual appearance, until a young Bojji came to its rescue — an act of kindness Mitsumata never forgot. Under the care of Bebin, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, it grew to become a trusted and capable subordinate. Operating from the shadows, Mitsumata repeatedly shielded Bojji from harm and personally taught him lip-reading techniques as well as evasion-based combat strategies, making it an indispensable mentor and ally throughout Bojji's journey of growth.
