Orikami

Orikami are kami, a type of being from the Spirit Plane, that appear as folded paper in a humanoid shape.

Unlike yokai, spirits that manifest through physical objects, kami are native to the Spirit Plane and manifest freely, though they can appear to be made of materials and objects found on the Mortal Plane.
