Hinnagami

(Hinnagami)

人形神
ひんな

A powerful spirit that resides within a doll. Created by mixing blood and cemetery earth to make a clay, then formed in the shape of the doll. The doll is placed in the middle of a busy road to be trampled on by 1000 people. Later, the doll is retrieved and is now a Hinnagami. The Hinnagami will grant its owner any wish, however, if another isn't made immediately after, the Hinnagami will demand, "what's next?" As soon as that wish has been fulfilled, it will ask again, and again, repeating the pattern forever. The link between the creator and the Hinnagami is especially strong due to the ritual of creation, and the inherent greed and desire that comes with it. When the owner of a Hinnagami dies, they are cursed to be haunted by their creation, even in hell.

 This doll is 6.5 inches tall, 2.75 inches wide, and 1.5 inches deep. She is made of polymer clay, acrylic paint, crepe fabric and paper, with coffee grounds as the dirt, so she smells fantastic!
