The Seminoan Warriors (セミノワン戦士, "Seminowan Senshi") were four warriors who traveled to the Patch Village five hundred years ago in order to participate in the Shaman Fight.
History
Past
Five hundred years ago a member of the Patch Tribe visited the village in which the Seminoan Warriors inhabited, inviting them to take part in the Shaman Fight that was occurring during this period. The warriors decided to undertake the journey, with the best of intentions, but on their travels to the Patch Village, they encountered Hao. At this point, Hao was a member of the Patch Tribe and attempted to recruit the warriors into his faction. When they refused, Hao proceeded to kill all four of them using the Spirit of Fire.

The warriors were first seen in the series when the Kachina Dolls they now inhabit were displayed by Lilirara as she prepared to stop Yoh and his friends from continuing any further in the Shaman Fight. Ren is able to block their initial attack, kicking one and then commenting on how weak they are. At this moment, the form of one of the Seminoan Warriors emerges out of the doll and appears to cut off Tao Ren's leg. Lilirara then she commands her Over Souls to cut Ryu in half, then pierces Asakura Yoh's heart, and then cut Horohoro's arm off. However, it is then revealed that Yoh and his friends are not injured. Lilirara explains that the attacks were just memories into them upon contact with the dolls, which is why they felt pain. soon Lilirara then offers them the chance to experience the past of the Seminoan Warriors, in which Yoh and the company finally accept even after knowing the pain they will have to endure to do so. She later commands her Over Souls to take hold of Yoh and company again, then proceeds to narrate what happened to the warriors during the last Shaman Fight.

O.S. Kachina Dolls
- Shaman: Lilirara
- O.S. Type: Spirit Type
- Spirit Ally: The Four Seminoan Warriors
- Media used: Kachina dolls
Description: These are Over Souls made from Kachina dolls. With some of Seminoa magic, Lilirara can integrate the ghosts present within the dolls, with their victims and share the ghosts' experiences and pain through threw a form of visions, by directly invading their mind. To do so direct contact with the dolls must first occur; the longer they remain in contact with the victim, the more and more precise the visions become. Lilirara refers to this process as High Speed Image Memory Soul[1] (High Mega Vision Memorial in the English version of the anime series).
Anime/Manga Difference
The "Five" Seminoan Warriors in the 2001 anime series
As Chocolove was present with Yoh's group at this point in the anime series, the number of Seminoan Warriors was increased to five, instead of the four present in the manga series. This meant all members of the group could be possessed at once and so see the visions together, rather than one being left out.
In the anime series, they travel to the Seminoa memories several times, until they get some clues from the place where the patch tribe is located, while in the manga series after they protect Lilirara she later gives them a map.
Trivia
- The four Warriors' names are Nitsuba, Yofia, Ian, and Drysa. The fifth one in the anime series is named Chelga.
