Dancer in Flesh

Onmyuza is a particularly hedonistic and debauched ogre mage kishin oni known as the "Dancer in Flesh" whose third eye is stitched shut by three golden rings. She lives underground, in a complex beneath Goka.
One of the rituals performed by those dedicated to Onmyuza involves dipping a needle in sake and then using it to lightly trace over the lines of the worshippers' tattoos.

Chaotic EvilA chaotic evil character is driven entirely by her own anger and needs. She is thoughtless in her actions and acts on whims, regardless of the suffering it causes others.
In many ways, a chaotic evil character is pinned down by her inherent nature to be unpredictable. She is like a spreading fire, a coming storm, an untested sword blade. An extreme chaotic evil character tends to find similarly minded individuals to be with—not out of any need for company, but because there is a familiarity in this chaos, and she relishes the opportunity to be true to her nature with others who share that delight. - Areas of Concern

Chaotic NeutralA chaotic neutral character values his own freedom and ability to make choices. He avoids authority and does not fear standing out or appearing different. In extreme cases, he may embrace a lifestyle entirely suited to himself— living in a cave near a city, becoming an artist, or otherwise challenging traditions. He never accepts anything at face value and makes up his own mind rather than blindly accepting what others tell him to do or think., NENeutral EvilMotivated by his own needs and wants, a neutral evil character is without conscience, acting only for self-gratification. He might surround himself with the trappings of cults and evil, but does so purely because it brings him closer to sin and wickedness. While a lawful evil person is inclined to bargain and a chaotic evil one to lash out, a neutral evil person is inclined only to look out for himself. In many ways, he epitomizes evil, since he has no clear loyalty to anything except absolute self-interest., CE
An extremist neutral evil character tends to be a loner, since he has either betrayed or slain those who came close to knowing him.Chaotic EvilA chaotic evil character is driven entirely by her own anger and needs.

Oni Daimyo
Source: Book of the Damned
The most powerful oni, the oni daimyo, hold their domains in isolated regions of the Material Plane. While they have transcended their lesser incarnations to become something close to demigods in stature, they do not flaunt their power and prefer to dwell in remote corners of the massive land of Tian Xia.
Oni daimyo are always evil in alignment but can be chaotic, lawful, or neutral. They range in power from CR 21 to CR 25. The boons they grant are less complex than those granted by fiendish demigods, manifesting as spell-like abilities usable twice per day each.
