A large Oni whose human form is topped by the head of an ox. Their magnificent horns show they are probably some kind of leader. There is no record of them in earlier literature, suggesting they are one of the new northern Oni.[2] 牛頭人身の大型“鬼”。立派な角を持っていることから大将格の上位種とみられる。 過去の文献には記録がなく、北に現れた新種の“鬼”。[3] |

A large Oni whose human form is topped by the head of an ox. Their magnificent horns show they are probably some kind of leader. There is no record of them in earlier literature, suggesting they are one of the new northern Oni. With their ability to spurt red-hot flames and exert control over other Oni, they are reckoned to be related to Chthonian Fiends. 牛頭人身の大型“鬼”。立派な角を持っていることから大将格の上位種とみられる。 過去の文献には記録がなく、北に現れた新種の“鬼”であると考えられる。 強大な炎熱の力をモチ、他の“鬼”を統率するような行動も見られることから、ゴウエンマに近い存在と目されている。[1] |

Trivia[]
- Maledictaurs seem to have a very different voice during cutscenes than in actual battles.
- Maledictaurs and Cacarions are most likely based on the two guardians of hell in Chinese mythology, Ox-Head and Horse-Face, due to resembling them in appearance and having gozu (ox head) and mezu (horse head) in their Japanese names.[7]
