Originally diligent in their duties, the Yotogi worked feverishly to restore the balance, and once it was restored,
went on to attempt to aid mankind. Unfortunately, this lead to disaster and the Yotogi vowed never to truly
interfere again, leaving the world to it's own devices, to only record. They gathered to them another race of
helpers, the Djinn, and began recording the universe's passing, using the Djinn as intermediaries.
Eventually the Djinn grew tired of this service and rebelled against the Yotogi. Physically frail, the Yotogi stood no
real chance against the Djinn, who's power and might were high comparatively. They imposed new order, and
slowly gained equality to their former masters the Yotogi. No longer used as intermediaries, they were now the
physical arm of a force that would only grow as the world turned.
When the gods and great spirits of the world began to intermingle in the lives of mortals, they left behind their
children. Most of them fought the good fight, opposed those evils in the world. But there was one that didn't. The
Uiba didn't want anything to do with the good fight, they wanted to be left alone.
The Yotogi, seeing the Uiba as possible kindred spirits, approached them, and brought them into the fold. They
would serve the Yotogi as spies moving into and out of human society seemlessly, reporting information back to
the Yotogi so that they didn't have to be constantly in a weakened state. Sometimes Uiba were outed as Spider
Demons to the uninitiated, but they kept to the shadows enough to keep themselves out of public
consciousness.
The final peg in this group of watchers, were those that were refugees. Those that were created by the mad
science of the Sasori. They wanted nothing more than to be left alone, and the Uiba felt for them, feeling much
the same way. They were offered succor, and a place to be. In return they act as protectors for the Yotogi.
Now, a Yotogi is never without their Gijin companion. The Djinn watch over the wars of the world, interfering
when the balance or power is threatened and the Uiba help the Yotogi record history bringing them information
that they could never have gotten themselves.

Uiba, against the Shinkoukenjin norm, do not live in packs, but live in communities that emulate a commune.
Generally, when a Uiba unit moves into a town, they will buy a large building for themselves, and move in their
entire unit. Other than working together however, they lead very solitary lives, even married couples generally
sleep in separate beds.
The Gijin however, have to gather together to protect themselves or at least that's what they believe. Living and
loving mostly freely, the Gijin live in packs that huddle together around their Yotogi companions and generally
protect them from harm to the exclusion of all other concnerns.
The Yotogi tend to live affluent lifestyles. They are the rich that no one can explain where they get their money.
They generally live alone with at least one Gijin. Some live with others of their kind, but only when the two are
married or there is some need like a war-torn area that needs more recording than normal.
Djinn wander the earth, generally having no homes of note, but having several squats that they call their own.
They have their own plane, like Soul Society or the Oni Courts, but other than a skeleton crew of maintenance
workers, most don't stay there long. They do have a military hierarchy and they do take orders from their
superiors, but generally you have to find a Djinn to order them around.
The leaders of the various races in the dispassionate watchers come in many forms. For some, it's military, for
others it's social leaders. Below are the names of the leaders of the various groups of the dispassionate
watcher's races.
Uiba: Director
Gijin: Alpha
Djinn: General
Yotogi: Lead
Each race looks a little different than a normal human, having exotic features.
Uiba: Generally darker skin and dark hair. Generally they are tall and lanky as well.
Gijin: Looks change based on what animal they are based on. This doesn't mean it's based off their
Shinkoukenjin race, it's based off the animal they came from. Still looks human
Djinn: Generally bronze skin and dark hair. Some, especially Efreeti, are more red than bronze.
Yotogi: Looks completely human except that males tend to be bald.
To the spiritually aware, the look a bit different based on race. Some look the same however.
Uiba: These creatures look like they do to the non-spiritually aware creatures
Gijin: Looks like an anthropomorphic version of the animal they were descended from.
Djinn: Genereally they have small horns on their heads. Some look like they're on fire others exude a thin
smoke.
Yotogi: Generally Yotogi look like they do to the non-spiritually aware, but their eyes are pupil-less; being pure
white.
Questions and Answers
Q: Why did the Uiba not participate in the sealing of Oda Nobunaga?
A: While they cared about the world, they cared little for who ran it. Oda Nobunaga seemed to be just like the
ruling class that existed before, greedy and selfish so they refused.
Q: Why did the Spirit King create the Yotogi instead of just having Shinigami clean up the Quincy's mess?
A: That is because the Spirit King commanded that the Shinigami continue gathering souls and continue their
old duties. The Yotogi were given the task to clean up the mess made by the Quincy, and they did so admirably.
Q: What crime did the Yotogi commit to condemn themselves to a lifetime of recording instead of acting?
A: They attempted to be worshiped as gods due to extreme hubris due to their divine nature. In the end, they
realized their folly and submitted themselves to a life of recording and living on the fringes of society. They still
interfere occasionally, but never again are they allowed to fully engage with the world around them.
Q: Why did the Gijin run away and are they all out of danger?
A: They ran from Ketai Monoguza because he treated them like less than dirt, like pack mules and slaves.
Maiyuri is known to treat his specimens better than Ketai treated the Gijin. They are not all out of danger
however, as many more than what's escaped remain back in Ketai's laboratories.
Q: Why do the Gijin get the ability to copy multiple Shinkoukenjin races?
A: Because their creator used the DNA of captured Shinkoukenjin to prime the beasts he used for
anthropomorphism. The DNA is within them from almost every species of Shinkoukenjin.
