not!Japan

Tiny little shits that have an insane code of conduct and literally steal everything they have from other people?

Kendar.

>>46742158
Ah fuck I remember using the final fight song from sword of the stranger as the music I played during the climax of of my not!Japan campaign. My players were literally on the edges of their seats with their mouths wide open.

Anyway probably Kitsune's or some stupid shit like that.

>>46742142
Either kitsune or rabbit folk. The soratami from mtg come to mind

Not only one of the best samurai anime movies I've ever seen, SotS is one of the best period movies I've seen.

Tieflings. They use Honor and community-oriented codes of conduct to curtail the destructive selifhsness inherent due to their inhuman ancestry. They might even use ancestral or animist magic to ensure that their racial features are universal, rather than wildly divergent.

Why not just use Youkai like a normal person?

There's hundreds of species to choose from

>If I was to add in a not!Japan into my setting, and I did not want them to be human, what race should I make them?

Japanese.

I say run dragon kin, but that's just cause what a guy i know does, and i think it worked pretty well.

>>46742474
I see what you did there but OP didn't want to be racist.

>>46742386
I like the idea of giving them darker ancestry, but I'm not sure Tieflings are the way to do. Ogre Mage ancestry, maybe?

>>46742771
That works too. Or Oni, since they're culturally equivalent in a way.

Really anon? Do you even have to ask? Just pick a species of Yokai. Hell you can pick more than one species of Yokai to show the different clans.

>>46742142
Realtor some Aasimar as moonfolk from mtg. Or goblins as sick kamigawa turtle goblins.

Or tieflings. They kind of look like some of crazy Japanese monsters with mask-faces.

Good taste anon.

>>46743904
Overdone. And how.
Though now that I think about it, western ogres could be an interesting choice (if done well).

Just because OP wants to use a Japanese culture does not necessarily mean OP is a weeb.

If you are going to do that then why not just go with the Oni since there are already similarities between them. Only instead of portraying them as brutes you can portray them as a warrior species. If you are gonna do no!japan then there has to be at least some far east feel to it, western ogres won't really give that feel.

>>46744549
That clashes so hard with east asia

Not saying it wouldn't work, but my not suggesting eastern ogres was very deliberate.

You can get that feel easy enough through the culture you give them.

>>46742142
Elves are the not!Japanese

Humans/Dwarves/Derro are the not!Ainu

Hobgoblins as the not!Ryukuan

Aasimar for the inhabitants of not!Shikoku

Half-Orcs for not!Osaka

I did this in my game!

My not!japan was mostly tengu and "oni," which is to say orcs. Orcs in my game can be green, blue, or red-skinned, and they often have horns.

Excuse me, but could i please get sauce on all these gifs?

>>46745387
sword of the stranger.

>>46744655
That pic gave me the idea that OP could just repurpose orcs, or a subspecies of orcs (if the setting is far more expansive than not!japan) and call them Oni.

>>46745432
Thank you anon

>Race as a culture
how about you fuck off.

>>46742142
Kobolds.
Short, cute, worship dragons, have a ridged culture where they always defer to their superiors, will work themselves to death for the good of their company/people, and you can do something interesting with dogbolds.

Do a custom race of anime people with big eyes and miniscule everything. They can be the bane for your Not!Japan people tho.

Yes it does.
