Otohime/Lore

Official Profile

The lord of Ryūgū-jō, the Dragon Palace that appears in the tale of Urashima Tarō. In the story, this figure appears as a beautiful maiden, but it is likely a dragon transformed into human form. However, in the original sources, Otohime is actually a celestial maiden who had transformed into the five-colored turtle itself, and Ryūgū is described not as an undersea realm but as a palace built on an island offshore.
