Shi'ai Long
The Kitsune Prince
In a couple of sentences:
Foxes are known world round as being mischievous creatures, and the Kitsune Shi'ai maintains that moniker appropriately. Shi'ai is a man who despite his capricious nature is incredibly honest and kind spirited. While he is in service to his race and mother Gaia foremost, he holds all of her creations in high regard and would do what he could to aid anyone in a time of need. Always on the move and looking to experience and learn all that he can, Shi'ai is an outgoing and charismatic individual who most enjoy the company of, but in the same breath he would not hesitate to get one over on someone if the chance presented itself. |

➘ Description of his shifting forms: [Visual Representation]
- Hitogata - The Kitsune's human form, other than a universally mischievous look, they are indistinguishable from any other person. In general, they like to keep in shape and pride themselves on being good looking.
- Sambuhenge - Foxes rarely take this form other than when a situation calls for humor, as it is somewhat comical in appearance. They are slightly more athletic and nimbler than in their Hitogata form, but for the most, the difference is not so significant enough to risk being laughed at by those who find their near-human for amusing. Body mass stays about the same as the Hitogata form, but their ears point upward and their eyes become slanted and thin, more fox than human. The werefox's nose lengthens and whiskers appear, this form also sports a fox tail.
- Koto - Standing only an inch or two taller than the Hitogata and Sambuhenge forms, Koto adds no real bulk to the Kitsune, but other physical changes are quite noticeable. The Koto head becomes fully that of a fox, though still retaining unmistakable human intelligence in the eyes. The body is completely covered with fox fur. It possesses vulpine, digitgrade knees, and an obvious fox tail. The feet are paw-like and the hands are tipped with claws, although they retain fingers and opposable thumbs. Since they do not inflict Delirium, they seldom assume the Koto form unless certain of their privacy or in courtly affairs.
- Juko - A wolf-sized fox form, and well suited for travels, as it possesses greater endurance than the Kyubi form. This form has a great amount of manual dexterity with their mouth and some have learned to hold daggers in order to fight when there are no other options.
- Kyubi - Fox form. Hitogata Kitsune take the form of a fox matching their breed, which in Shi'ai's case would be the common red fox from China, but with an unusual silver coat.
