Baku are mythological creatures in Japanese folklore that are said to eat nightmares. While they are commonly depicted as a tapir, we wanted this pin design to callback to their roots as chimera by augmenting the tapir body with tiger claws, elephant tusks, and a cow's tail. The pose and colors are also inspired by folk art depictions of baku and other mythological creatures for a fun splash of color!

The Baku pin will be available for unlock as part of the campaign. It's looking forward to finding a new host to feed on...

Baku is a mythological creature said to eat nightmares. Well, it looks like ours will be having quite the meal with the lineup we have in store for them...



We'll have plenty more to share as we get closer to launch day, so be sure to follow the project and get notified. Follows also help us get a better chance at funding all of our designs, which we'd love to do so that our baku is well-fed!
