Maho Bujin, also known as Shadowlands Madmen, were bloodspeakers warriors of those consumed by the taint. After they were transformed in a creature of the Shadowlands they traveled toward the Festering Pit of Fu Leng, to become a living servant of Jigoku. Most Maho Bujin were Crab bushi. Those who passed a test made by akutsukai joined the Shadowlands ranks, and the failures were fed to oni. Their humanity was completely gone, reducing them to mindless, bloodthirsty animals. They commonly were used on the front-lines of Shadowlands armies.
