Sometimes you live on a mountain, sometimes you are a mountain.

A tengu (天狗) is a Japanese spirit that lives in the mountains. They are recognizable by their long noses and the garb of the Yamabushi.

Fiction

Beast Wars II cartoon

Through nature's curious machinations, a rock existed in the Sea Continent that resembled a tengu's head. Face the Setting Sun

Ask Vector Prime

In the timeline of Aurex 615.03 Epsilon, the Beast Wars was waged in Alpha Q's universe 300 years after the Autobot/Decepticon war. The Maximals and Predacons fought multiple sub-wars on this universe's planets until the Alternity had to step in. In the Dust War on Plains Planet, Maximal creatures of earth, wind, and fire fought against Predacon oni, tengu, and kappa. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/06/03

Notes

  • It may not have had anything to do with the creature known as the tengu, but the Maximals on prehistoric Earth designated one area as Tengu Sector.
