Kitsune

Overview

The kitsune are fox-like yokai have taken the role of celestial protectors of Azuma. They are closely associated with humans, and larger cities have kitsune who personally guard them and the surrounding regions. Kitsune who act against their kin and act as malicious yokai are branded as nogitsune, shunned from regular kitsune society. These self-absorbed tricksters hide among society, seeking power or bringing misfortune to humanity as their whims decree. A kitsune’s need for kinship makes it hard for nogitsune to willingly keep up their ways; many eventually renounce their ways and return to kitsune society, though especially steadfast kitsune can remain nogitsune for centuries.
