who he is, he wouldnt be so fascinating, he is an enigma and should stay an enigma. Although it is fun to wonder and debate, as I have done many times myself. I think he could be a genius loci or as in the Shinto faith, a Kami. 'kami could be the guardian spirits of the land Traditionally, kami possess two souls, one gentle and the other assertive. This powerful form of kami was also divided into amatsu-kami ("the heavenly deities") and kunitsu-kami ("the gods of the earthly realm"). A deity would behave differently according to which soul was in control at a given time. In many ways, this was representative of nature's sudden changes and would explain why there were kami for every meteorological event: snowfall, rain, typhoons, floods, lightning and volcanoes'. wikipedia.
