Board Thread:WARNING ALL USERS False Info\Spoilers/@comment-24458290-20140218141056/@comment-24565701-20140221074827

Running a google search on that massive Kitsune post above gave me tons of sources where this was posted but it seems the farthest/ oldest source comes from a guy/girl answering Naruto fans and enthusiasts.

This said, seems pretty accurate as to what the Japanese mythos says about them. Now put them into Jeff Davis head and lets see what happens :)

Interesting facts also mentioned there that I think could play a part in the series:

Section 3: common traits

Now naturally, all Kitsune are much like humans in the way that they have unique personalities and traits within each of them. However, it is important to note the many traits that are found in some way within each and every Kitsune.

The following is a list of several of these traits, and a brief explanation of them.

1. Trickery – all Kitsune enjoy pranking or playing tricks on one another. Often a Kitsune will give good fortune to a human when it has seen that human perform an impressive feat of trickery upon another.

2. Seduction – seduction is something all Kitsune excel at. They are naturally very exotic, and because of how they are aligned to both various elements and emotions, as well as skilled with illusions of the mind, the Kitsune are easily able to seduce anyone they please.

3. Secretive – all Kitsune feel a driving urge to protect their information. A Kitsune will never lie to you about something, but this does not mean it will answer every question. Often your attempts to extract information of even the most general sort from a Kitsune will be a frustrating process and sometimes downright impossible  .

4. Protective – Kitsune value bonds and family a great deal, if they have chosen a mate or are simply around a friend they will be very protective over that person or thing if a threat is posed to it. (On a side note, it is very rude in Kitsune culture to interfere with another’s affairs. So unless it is absolutely necessary, they will stand back until needed)  .

5. Manipulative – Kitsune are natural illusionists, and because of this they are very good at manipulating people. This is often seen used with seduction or trickery, but some Kitsune have been known to use manipulations to solve affairs they could not become involved in.

Intelligent – it goes without saying, Kitsune are some of the wisest creatures on earth. They have many years to increase their intelligence and are naturally curious enough to want to gain more knowledge  .

Cautious – factoring in with the above, Kitsune are naturally very wary and suspicious of anything they come into contact with. Any story told to them or gift offered to them is often required to be proven to be true, or proven to be safe.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Times;mso-bidi-font-family: Times;color:white;mso-themecolor:background1;mso-font-kerning:0pt">8. Possessive – factoring in with protective, once chosen by a Kitsune, a person or thing becomes the foxes possession. The Kitsune will consider you\it as if you belonged to it, and will act accordingly if someone or thing tries to endanger you\it  .

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Times;mso-bidi-font-family: Times;color:white;mso-themecolor:background1;mso-font-kerning:0pt">9. Vampirism – Kitsune all draw from a type of life force, be it elemental or emotional, to survive. The most common form of Kitsune vampirism ties into manipulation and seduction, as it is sexual intercourse.
