There's no need for a long and complicated answer. It's very simple actually, in the words of the Buddha Himself "I teach about suffering and the end of suffering"

Omito

Meet Omito (Oh-me-toe)

Omito is the prince of the demon kingdom and one of the main 3 characters in the story. Omito and his team are based on parts of my personality and omito is just the most well rounded character of all 5. He is not me neither is he what I want “me to be”. I know people will ask which character in the story is most like me and they will probably think it’s him but it’s a different character for WAY later.

Omito is what is considered the “younger generation of demons”. How this is relevant in a bit.

The demon kingdom as previously stated is filled with citizens that have complete control of their forms and appearances. The public is separated into 3 sort of groups. Their is no political merit to this. But merely a societal difference in view. The older generations of demons believe in remaining their “Demonic” forms, the usually reason that: “In ancient times our ancestors took the forms of spheres. To defend themselves against the other races and the wilds of the world they looked to nature for inspiration, hence why I choose to stay in animalistic/demonic form” of course this form is sorta scary to non demons. It’s hard to relate to your old man neighbor when he’s a bus sized scorpion made of ice and simply asking you about politics. For most of the demon kingdoms history the population stayed in these monstrous forms. And I mean MONSTROUS. For example: a demon boy could be raised by his father and grandparents, when is old enough to control how he looks it’s most likely he’ll take on bits and pieces of his family members to show how they are a part of his identity; it’s a sweet sentiment but it can be terrifying to non demons when a man has the build of a spider (dad) legs and tail of a monkey (grandpa) and a horse face(grandma) with multiple eyes(dad).

It was Omito’s grandmother who first came up with the idea to use a more humanoid form to better relate to the rest of the world, especially since the demons are the only non-humanoid race on Majiya. Because The Late Empress was so beloved by her subjects, most citizens stay in a human form. And the generation of the empress feel torn between their parents views of traditional forms or their children’s forward thinking outlook on personal forms.

The younger generation view their forms as a personal choice, trends, and fashion. On Monday a person can go thought their day as a female form and then Tuesday they talk on a male form and etc. or a citizen can take on the form of a werewolf with a leopard print tail, or an avant-garde like form or something “Camp” etc. Forms are just an outfit of the day and they are not set in stone. Omito is one of the most iconic people in media as not only a prince but a prodigy in shapeshifting. He attends fashion events with his own form designs and changes his form drastically constantly. He loves using it as a way to entertain and teach and “live”. His favorite things to be are speakers on his body, crabs, and inanimate objects.

He is a fun, wild, free spirited being, that has a massive fascination with humanity and its creations. Because he’s the crowned prince he isn’t really allowed to do what he wants as much but he has denounced the throne since he was first created and at this point the whole kingdom knows he has no intention of being king. The best way to describe him is how Micheal describes him “he is just a guy who wants to live life cuz he LOVES living”.
