Gods from Japanese Mythology...

EMMA-O

EMMA-O: King of Hell.

He lives the good life in a large castle covered in gold, silver, pearls and jewels.

His judgement is relatively simple. If you have killed an innocent human being you go into a cauldron full of molten metal. There is a get out clause. If after your crime you made a pilgrimage to all 33 shrines of Kwannon you may be excused metabolism.
