The Kappa is a strange being from Japanese folklore. A type of
spirit, demon, or imp they inhabit lakes and rivers. They are about the
size of a child, roughly human in appearance, with scaly greenish skin,
webbed and clawed hands and feet and a turtle shell on its back. They
are said to be fond of cucumbers and sumo wrestling, as well as looking
up women's kimonos.
The most peculiar trait of the
Kappa is the indentation at the top of their skull. This is filled with
water from the body of water where the Kappa resides, and should it ever
be emptied or dried out, the kappa will loose its power, and might even
die.
