Family: Spirit       Type: Elemental
Habitat:   Unknown (Some say, in a place between the spiritual and material realm)

Disposition:   Selfless, various

Diet:  Ethereal essence, mana of human men

Mysterious roving fiends, widely believed as ‘omens of death’, thought to have originated from the boundary between human and spirit realm; in aspect, they are always compromised of three, identically-robed women whose facial features are hidden within a hood. They can teleport freely and vanish at will, sneaking into human settlements to observe the feeble notions of ‘mortal beings’. Out of all Mamonos, they are the only ones born as a trio, and never as separate identities. Each individual embodies the timelines in human lifespan, and each harbours their own set of personalities:

Past- “Singuna” in ancient Filiban, young, naughty, mischievous and arrogant

 Present- “Subona”, pubescent, anticipative, cheery, easygoing and vibrant

 Future- “Hinabi”, middle-aged, silent, unpredictable, gloomy and dim

Due to the nature of their forms, they can never subsist on an exact point in time for more than a day, which is why they ‘jump’ from one time frame to another, watching human beings from a distance, longing to possess the tenderness and warmth their corporeal bodies lack in particular. They cannot interfere with any human activity, nor possess people similar to Ghosts (Doing so can cause them to fade, since that means they are attempting to interfere with that person's time).

As it is found, these three spirits act and decide as one consciousness despite their many conflicting temperaments, and the sole belief that revolves in their heads is the pursuit of affection and pleasure through a lifelong mate. They have the ability to ‘gaze’ at a person’s lifetime, or, in a better understanding, the slightest detail of one’s past mistakes, present actions and future endeavours. It is through this method that they learn about a person, and if he or she is doomed to suffer a terrible fate. They are sensitive enough to hate any manner of tragedy, and in order to avert such experience, they appear at the human’s home – and knock on his front door, whispering his or her name.

 To the superstitious, this is no ordinary visit: it is a warning that a member of the family is to disappear. A single knock, indicates that any one of them is ‘marked’. No form of ritual or spell can dispel them from doing this feat, and it cannot be avoided (These knocks are more frequent during times of war, epidemics, or disaster). Terror and confusion will reign in the hearts and minds of the household, but to the ones who are originally ‘marked’ by the Kumakatok, they will be drawn by the rapping sound, as if it were coaxing them closer. They will repeatedly open the door, only to be greeted by no one. Also, the mere thought of someone calling for their name continues to echo in their minds, bringing them to a restless state. They will begin to wait listlessly, as if waiting for the inevitable, and it will be a matter of time before the trio return and snatch the person away from the comforts of his home, to a place ‘free of earthly worries and torment’, for an eternity. The family will immediately assume this disappearance is a fulfilment of his/her dreadful fate.

 Of course, this is not without personal merit: Kumakatoks find this way the easiest course of obtaining a husband. If the one they ‘imprinted’ was a woman, they split her temporal consciousness into three, thereby transforming her into one of them. For men, though, it’s a different matter; Aside from being sensitive, they have a tragic sense of ideology: any man whose life and ultimate demise is the most heart-rending is most likely to be abound with spiritual energy (which is why they will exact all means necessary to have him).

Within the border line of the human and ethereal realm where they will bring their beloved, their bodies gain a metaphysical form. Out of glee,they toss aside their disguises, and lovingly draw the person into sexual union, the three of them receiving fair share of his mana, and pouring their demonic energy into him in return. Under their influence, he will never lose his libidinal impulses, as if time had stopped for him entirely. Through this continuous sapping of mana that stain their immaterial purity, they become more and more solid, and more lewd to the eyes of the beholder. Slowly, but surely, they will turn their lover into an immortal like them, an Incubus.

 During coercion, the three will rarely compete or bicker towards the man, yet it is agreed amongst themselves that they will all share him in equal terms, as their husband whose carnal desires and affection for them will never waver. They believe that this sensual pleasure is what will give them and their partner true bliss, away from the horrors of demise brought over by time.
