Editing Tsukumogami (section)

==List of Tsukumogami==
The list of tsukumogami is huge, especially given the vast array of alternate names, but here are some more well-known examples:
* Karakasa-obake: A paper umbrella with one eye, an oily tongue, and one (or rarely two) legs that it madly hops about on. A playful trickster that loves to spook people.
* Chochin-obake: A ball-shaped paper-lantern that sprouts a mouth and at least one eye, some times gaining limbs. Like the Karakasa-obake, it's a playful trickster.
* Bakezori: Neglected sandals that turned into silly little yokai who love to run around at night making noises.
* Hone-karakasa: An umbrella that was swept up in a strong wind, turning it into a flying, fish-like umbrella spirit. It loves to ride strong winds, and sighting one indicates a bad storm is coming.
* Shami-choro: A shamishen that once belonged to a master, now able to move about and play itself. Loves to play music, but is too shy to do so in front of an audience.
* Koto-furunushi: A koto that is now able to move about and play itself. Loves to play music, but is too shy to do so in front of an audience.
* Biwa Bokuboku: An animated biwa that disguises itself as a human and plays in the street for money. Often found alongside shami-choro and/or koto-furunushi.
* Mokumokuren: When the shoji (paper sliding doors & walls of traditional Japan) of a house are ill-cared for, they may animate as this yokai, which manifests as staring eyeballs that fill every hole in the paper. Harmless, but creepy, and often work with other yokai.
* Ittan-Momen: An animated sheet of cloth that flies through the air at night, looking for victims to strangle; one of the rare malevolent tsukumogami.
* Jatai: A jealous and murderous obi (kimono sash) that likes to strangle men at night.
* Shogorō: A shōgo (Buddhist bowl-shaped gong, used for religious services) that has come to life as a turtle-like yokai. Harmless but annoying, it likes to creep about at night, sporadically ringing its brazen shell with its hammer-like tail to amuse itself.
* Hahakigami: A ceremonial evil-cleansing broom that has come to life as its own spirit. Actually considered good luck, as they are believed to ward against evil, see off unwelcome guests, and help women give birth safely.
* Waniguchi: A Shinto shrine bell that has come to life as a small, crocodile-like creature. Like Shogoro, it's basically harmless.
* Yama oroshi: A ill-kept traditional grater that has come to life as a porcupine-like little humanoid. Can make a nuisance of itself by preying on vegetables.
* Kura Yarō: A [[samurai]] saddle that comes to life due to the death of its master whilst riding. Pugnacious and loyal, they roam the site where their master die, picking fights with anyone who trespasses.
* Abumiguchi: A [[samurai]] stirrup that comes to life due to the death of its master. A sad, lonely thing, they haunt the place where their master fell, hoping for his return.
* Kyōrinrin: The embodiment of an abandoned library of tomes and scrolls, come to life as an imposing, draconic priest made of scrolls. It scolds those who allow such valuable knowledge to fall into disuse.
* Suzuri no tamashii: An inkstone which has been used to copy one or more stories so many times that it can bring the story to life, creating sounds out of nothing and forming tiny illusory copies of people, places and events from its ink.
* Seto Taishō: A rowdy, pugnacious spirit that manifests from the broken crockery and utensils of the kitchen, which makes a nuisance of itself by wildly fighting and partying through the night.
* Shiro Uneri: An overused dishcloth that comes to life as a ragged, moldy, mildewed dragon-shape. Sometimes known to commit murder, but mostly a mischievous nuisance.
