Knife Tsukumogami OCsBasics
So basics are coming from the Japanese folklore and yokai stories. (Also sure there was a huge influence of fandom I am still stuck in, friends know)
Tsukumogami (付喪神, "Kami of tool") is a term used to categorise a type of yokai. Understood by many Western scholars as a type of Japanese yokai, the Tsukumogami was a concept popular in Japanese folklore as far back as the tenth century, used in the spread of Shingon Buddhism. The most accepted definition of the term says that tsukumogami are inanimate objects that once they have served their owner/s for 100 years, they receive a soul and therefore become alive and self-aware. They are usually harmless, though they tend to play small pranks. Still, they have the capacity to get angry and can group up to take revenge against those who threw them away or didn't treat them well. For this reason, jinja ceremonies are performed in Japan to console broken and/or unusable objects.
