Kitsune are natural born adventurers, often gifted with a curiosity that leads them towards a life of exploration and excitement. They are also born with the ability to transform into a humanoid form to blend in with the mortals they have a reputation for deceiving. Their age is indicated by their tails, with a new tail growing to join their others every century. Many ancient stories tell that the more tails a kitsune has, the more powerful it is; while this is often technically true, it is a case of correlation not necessarily equating causation. The tails themselves do not necessarily indicate a kitsune's power, but a kitsune who has lived long enough to grow so many tails has generally made themselves quite powerful in order to survive.
