Wuppo
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 114
Physical Description: "The citizens of Tamatoshi Bay would lay eyes on Wuppo, a 10-foot tall ogre, dirty with grime and what was probably dried blood. The giant's black beard was messily braided and twisted into two strands that hung from his chin, and the hair atop his head tied into a somewhat familiar but not entirely correct topknot."

Wuppo scratched his chin again between the two knotted and twisted strands of his beard, giving Yasuke’s words an appropriate period of thought.
“Hmmm.. Dem pumfkin jus’ like dem little beasties on Wuppo mountain. Dem sleep when is dark. Pumfkin see Wuppo, dayz see Wuppo fink dem tasty. Dayz run from Wuppo! Wuppo not get dem tasty pumfkin..”
As Wuppo sorted through his problem aloud, one may be given to wonder if the ogre even knew what a ‘pumfkin’ was; or at a minimum wonder what he envisioned them as.
“Wuppo follow dem beastie, so I’z follow dem pumfkin! Big pumfkin bigga den rock, so dem bigga den beastie. Pumfkin not hide from Wuppo! Wuppo be sneaky. Wuppo use all da sneaky!”
Looking satisfied with his assessment, he looked at Yasuke.
“We’z go when pumfkin sleep! Wuppo show you’z how him sneaky! Pumfkin not know we’z der until iz too late and dem tasty!”
Wuppo didn't seem to pick up on the fact that Yasuke was making additional excuses as to why they would need to go at night. They would need to go at night because it would make catching(?) the pumpkins easier, and that was all the reason he needed. Yasuke's personal affairs lining up and leaving him free for their nighttime pumpkin hunt seemed like a happy accident.

Whatever Yasuke's real reason for going pumpkin hunting at night, it made complete sense to Kojuro that someone as large and conspicuously scary as Wuppo should probably be kept as invisible as possible to the local residents. Undoubtedly this was what was going through Yasuke's mind as well, trying to spare the poor pumpkin farmers and Wuppo himself any undue aggravation. “Don't forget to compensate the farmers for their trouble. A snack for Wuppo could mean a family going hungry this winter,” he said in a low voice to Yasuke. “The Hizashi clan will pay, he's our honoured guest, after all.” From the front of the column came a shout, the Hizashi Mansion was now visible nestled in the mountains ahead. They were nearly home, and it had been a truly successful expedition, as well as providing some unexpected but welcome company. Nakatani was waiting back at the mansion for him, and he would be able to report to Lord Genji that the bandits had been eradicated. Everything was looking good and Kojuro smiled to himself as they made their way home.
