In the fictional world of Claymore, yoma are a species of humanoid monsters, believed by some to be a type of demon, that coexist with humans, feeding on their internal organs. Most are similar in size to humans, though some are noticeably larger and more heavily muscled.

Most have rows of stubby spikes growing from their upper backs, with elongated limbs that end in clawed digits, large fang-filled jaws and pointed ears, giving them a bestial appearance. Yoma have greater strength, speed, and durability compared to humans, being capable of extending their limbs and digits, and are capable of both regenerating after being wounded and shape-shifting to appear completely human.

Taken a step further, they can eat a human's brain to absorb their memories and completely replace them. Yoma are identified by their 'yoki', or life energy, which can be sensed by other yoma and by claymores.

A Claymore video game for the Nintendo DS will be released in Japan on May 28, 2009. The game is titled Claymore: Gingan no Majo and will be released by Digital Works Entertainment. In the game, the player controls Clare by using the touch screen and stylus.
