A weakened version of the Tenjiku Fire Demon, but still having Demon character, could be made by limiting the burning to a maximum number of neighbors. Even with only a single burn victim (like the Forest Ox of Odin's Rune Chess), it would be a very dangerous piece, and could serve the same function as in Tenjiku: taking out a critical piece behind the Pawn wall.
Playing Tenjiku Shogi is highly recommended; a not-too-strong computer opponent that could be used as a sparring partner is available in the form of Jocly.
