Amefurikozō - Bringing torrential rainfall wherever they go, these irritating little Japanese elemental faeries resemble small children wearing kimonos, wooden clogs and large umbrellas on their heads, and are sometimes said to steal people's umbrellas to use as hats before causing rain to fall on the victims of their thievery. Despite this, they are skittish and shy around humans. Kitsunes enjoy having rain on their wedding days, and so sometimes pray to these elementals to produce it.
