WAKURABA NO KUNIWakuraba Country
Detailed Record

A land of "anomalies" that wavers between the present world and the spirit world.
A history of autonomy continuing from the ancient Onmyo Bureau, and coexistence with yokai that lives on in the modern age.
This is a sanctuary for those who stood up before anyone else.

I. Basic Structure of the World and the "Principle of Three Layers"
Utsushiyo (The Present World)

The modern society enjoyed by humans. The existence of yokai is kept secret, and public institutions like the Ministry of Defense cooperate with Wakuraba Country behind the scenes, commissioning yokai extermination for national defense.

Kakuriyo (The Spirit World)

A different realm where yokai and the souls of the dead stir. A dangerous area where yokai, who feed on the vital energy of living beings, roam and constantly aim to invade the present world.

Wakuraba Country
Iso (Anomaly)

A region on the boundary line. Those without power who wander in become "spiritually lost," entering an unstable world where the brain rejects recognition and distorted visions are seen.

❖ Records of Autonomy and Geography
II. Founding and OriginFounder: The origin lies in the "mass spiritually lost incident" during the Heian period, where a part of the Onmyo Bureau, resisting the corruption of the imperial court, collectively transferred to the anomalous realm.Origin of the Name: It was likened to "sick leaves (wakuraba)," out-of-season autumn foliage, referring to "pioneers who stood up before anyone else, despite being eroded by the vermin of bureaucracy."Modern Form: While based on a self-sufficient lifestyle, there is also a free-spirited atmosphere of attending companies and schools in the present world.
III. The Boundary and GeographyScale of the Barrier: A massive barrier approximately 50km in radius, maintained by the spiritual power of the Head of Onmyo. Only the inside is a sanctuary.Center: The residence of the Head of Onmyo in a hilly area. Residential areas and government offices surround it.North: A mountainous region with strong spiritual power. A sacred area inhabited by powerful yokai and their familiars.

Currently held by "Yamase.".

Assistant Head of Onmyo (Onmyo no Suke)Capacity: 1 person

An aide directly under the Head of Onmyo. This is the busiest position in the country, handling everything from managing the Head's official duties to dealing with their eccentric ideas. Currently held by "Sakurateru.".

Clerk of Onmyo (Onmyo no Jo)Capacity: 1 person

The chief administrative officer. Oversees all practical matters such as household registration, budget allocation, and notifications. Known as a genius of practical affairs, it is said that the country's functions would halt if he stopped writing.

Social Systems and Culture
❖
Pass System

Wakuraba Country and the present world are connected by barrier devices called "Transfer Gates," but free passage is not permitted. A "Pass" is required for passage, which is issued and approved by the Administrative Bureau. Issuance of a pass requires a legitimate reason (mission, trade, special permission, etc.) and is subject to strict examination.

❖
Residential Style

The basic architectural style is Japanese, but it is not a complete traditional style, incorporating unique building materials and structures of the anomalous realm. Many residences have special spaces for housing shikigami and integrated simple barrier devices. Ordinary onmyoji often live in row house-style apartment buildings, and members of the Samurai Bureau also live in dormitories.

❖
Attire Culture

The culture of Japanese clothing remains strong in Wakuraba Country. There are weavers and tailors within the country who produce traditional attire. In particular, special garments called "Onmyo attire" are worn during festivals and for missions involving frequent combat. Many onmyoji wear Western clothing brought from the present world for daily wear, but Japanese attire is the basic standard for formal occasions within the country.
