Yamame Kurodani

『The Bright Net in the Dark Cave』 Yamame Kurodani (黒谷 ヤマメ Kurodani Yamame) is a youkai inhabiting the entrance to the Underworld. Yamame is a tsuchigumo – an earth spider – with the ability of manipuling diseases. She generally prefers not to use said ability, though, and she has an outgoing nature and a love of fighting. Other youkai like her for her bright personality, but humans stay away because of her ability. In addition, as a tsuchigumo, she is well-suited for building construction due to her physical strength and that of her string. However, she can apparently be reasoned with.
