She's Japanese, so she's probably an Akkorokamui. Its a minor deity from Hokkaido, I'll have to do some rereading to see if she said she was from Hokkaido or if she met the mc there when he was little.
Looking back, she's mentioned that Darin, her transformation power has somewhat divine in origin. She also asked him if he had no resistance to divine magic. I could be onto something.

Yokai.com and the cryptid wiki both mention the Akkorokamui being half-human, half-octopus with a red body. Mizudako's tentacles appear blue, but the tips have been observed turning red, depending on her emotions, and when using her powers.

She'll get along fine with Mizudako-chan, speaking of which, maybe she can help with her powers since she controls her illusions from her emotions, might help with controlling Mizudako-chan's powers when she inevitably loses control of her powers from her emotions! :thonk:

Oh, it gets worse for Uragane. Shen can mean "Chinese aquatic dragon" or "Chinese clam-monster". The shapeshifting is justified.

If I had a nickel for every time I'd come across a dragon with illusory/mirage powers associated with the name "Shen," etc...

(Tsukimichi was the other one, this just prompted me to look it up and realize it was a mythology reference)
