Most famously, they have a dish-like spot on top of their head, full of vital fluid. If a kappa spills this, they shrivel up and die. Another strange thing is that the kappa's arms are connected inside their torso, so if one arm is pulled, the other one shrinks. Most peculiarly, the kappa has three anuses.
