The '''satori''' (Youkai-go: '''覚''', pronounced ''Sahsah-tautoh-ree'', lit. "Consciousness") is a creature belonging to the '''[[Youkai]]''' category. Youkai are both sapient and sedentary, making them one of the [[:Category:Civilized creatures|civilized species]] of the Mazes.

This creature has six seven attacks: '''Punch''', '''Kick''', '''Psi-blast''', '''Psi-confuse''', '''Psi-heal''' and , '''Psi-stun''', and '''Psi-scan'''.

Satori are one of a number of [[youkai]] species, and are perhaps the most maligned and misunderstood, more so than even [[jorougumo]]. They resemble short humanoids, with regular humanoid skin tones, hair that can take on virtually any color of the visible spectrum, and most importantly, a protruding, prominent third eye, sticking out of a spherical growth on the satori's head. This third eye is larger than the a "normal" pair of eyes, taking up to one third of the forehead's space. The third eye's iris can also take any color of the visible spectrum, but is always a different color from the satori's normal eyes. Satori are among the shortest species of youkai, with an average height of just 4 feet 8 inches. Their constitution is usually very slim, bordering on lithe, with a very low average weight of just 95 pounds for both males and females.

The A satori's primary ability of a satori is lies in psionics. They are capable of projecting psionic energy into various techniques; offensively (''psi-blast''), defensively (''psi-confuse'' and ''psi-stun''), or for healing themselves (''psi-heal''). They also possess the gift of psionic analysis - colloquially known as ''"mind reading"''. Through psionic analysis, a satori is always highly alert and reactive, and they can accurately read the true intentions of any creature on sight (even and especially if they are trying to conceal them). If given enough time to observe and concentrate on a single creature, a satori can eventually read that creature's surface thoughts, and further determine intentions or plans, as well as true emotions and feelings in greater detail. Further concentrating on a single person may lead to discovering deeper memories and thoughts.

Attempting to lie to, or manipulate a satori practically a lost cause; they can always see through you. For this reason, satori are naturally skilled interrogators, and some found find successful careers as private eyes.

Unfortunately, satori cannot "turn off" their psionic analysis; even if though they can try their best to consciously ignore the stream of information, they are always somewhat aware of the vague feelings and intentions of the creatures around them. This has the unfortunate effect of giving satori a very poor reputation; they are often distrusted and feared, if not outright hated, simply for the act of peeking into other people's minds. In turn, many satori become asocial and depressed, living as recluses, as far away from needless interaction as possible.

Despite these difficulties, satori are not devoid of the possibility to live of living normal, if not successful lives, they . Some will simply choose whatever available jobs and occupations that will let them work solo, or with as few partners as possible. With that said, one should not be afraid to approach a satori; so long as your intentions are genuine and non-hostile, they will be very appreciative of the gesture.
