Emperor Inagami

variant/ancestor or something of inagami from a distant past where it had a mutual relationship with human settlements, often hunted with them and grew their crops 

it’s body can produce not only sleeping and bamboo growth agents but also poisonous/toxic and healing agents as well. could heal wounds of hunters and itself. acted as a fourth “party member” to the villagers who needed to hunt for food, and would share the fresh kill with the emperor.

unlike “present” day inagami, it had wings still, and could fly freely without the need to grow bamboo to use as wings. however, due to its habitat, wing usage is decreased (which is why it evolves later on to remove them).

an inagami that was betrayed by the human settlements likely had already evolved from its prime form of emperor inagami.
