The Oni mask is often the focal point of Horimono (full body tattoo). The Horimono can take years to complete and is typically completed in weekly sittings. As a result, it is prohibitively costly.

He is dressed in leopard skin and carries a giant bag of air across his shoulders, which he uses to push himself throughout the planet, causing winds and storms to form. Fujin is represented riding on a cloud, which may be either a gray storm cloud or a fluffy cumulus. Each of his hands has four fingers, one for each of the four cardinal directions. Fujin, the god of the wind, is constantly on the move and seems to be everywhere, but he is supposed to be most prominent during storms, especially violent typhoons, when the winds may fall trees and damage buildings. Although Fujin is typically connected with destructive winds, he may also be associated with mild and pleasant breezes. As a result, as compared to his brother Raijin, Fujin is less intense and more carefree.
The Japanese were not only able to resist the Mongol invaders, but also to repel them.
