𝙃𝙄𝙎 𝙉𝙀𝙒 𝙁𝙊𝙍𝙈 .

he took the form of a large triangle eared fox , pointed at the tip and triangle toward the middle, very long. Saint's coat looks pure black so it's often referred to as such , but it's actually such a dark red that it might as well be black. his tails are a deep wine red two are tipped in pure white with a ring of gold where the two colors meet and one is tipped in pure gold. the older the tail the more gold fur it'll gain. as the oldest tail the first is automatically golded no matter how old it is. only the ring around his legs are gold as well, the rest of his fur largely looks black with patterns of red tribal lines and slashes. the tips of his ears and the lines on his face are red. his legs are red up to where leg and neck meet , but a large bit of it is covered by the luxurious black fur.

in typical Set animal fashion, he is horned with curved black horns with red tips . his teeth are incredibly sharp and his mouth appears normal for a fox until it smiles , giving the impression of a crocodile with several gleaming rows of sharp teeth and a maw that stretches uncomfortably wide and opens wide enough to dislocate his jaw. drawing back his upper lip are thick, sharp fangs, and a long, thick prehensile forked tongue that can turn into a snake. the tip of a single tail forks into two prehensile parts, but they do not count as a separate tail.

he's a very weird looking fox and he should be. his fox form should look a bit unsettling. not quite right, displaying the characterstics of the set animal and a fox.

𝙃𝙄𝙎 𝙃𝙐𝙈𝘼𝙉 𝘼𝙋𝙋𝙀𝘼𝙍𝘼𝙉𝘾𝙀 .

As Kumiho are largely female , his shift from a normal fox to a Kumiho did give him the characterstics of a woman. his human form is tall and broad shouldered , but his hips are equally as wide and rounded. his form is buxom and soft with an emphasis of higher fat on his hips and muscled thighs. his waist is small and his stomach is defined. he's an imperfect hourglass with slightly wider shoulders than his hips.

most traditional Korean clothing doesn't look very nice on him. the formal woman's Hanbok of the early and late joseon period is the worst culprit of giving him a very strange, broad figure. he avoids these in favor of the Hanfu, which gives him a much lovelier figure around the shoulders. though this is Chinese , he wore men's clothes for the longest time and had to result to feasting on the souls and life forces of prostitutes. the discovery of the Hanfu made it easier to slip into society as a beautiful woman. the exoticness of his coloring made him stand out in a bad way at first in society. he knew the only way to feed and learn the art of society that he'd have to work with the very same prostitutes he used to feast on.

his hair is black as midnight and kept in its wavy natural form; there are small locks of red interspersed in his hair and the white streaks are concentrated one on each side of his hair in the front. s-shape finger waves allowing him to use the full body and volume of his hair. baby hairs slicked down to his forehead in sweeping , devilish little white curls near his temples and the rest slicked down in little black waves that looked like snakes. the bottom full and thick waves that curl up. reminiscent of the 1930s Chinese flavor on the finger wave style , he's a forever pin up girl.

as expected of this iteration , his skin is glass-like and clear giving him the appearance of a little porcelain doll. no matter what his top lip is a deep black winged at the edges and a deep red lower lip stained with black, glossy. as a Kumiho , he has to keep himself beautiful to lure in his prey the easiest. around his neck is a jagged redline that won't disappear no matter the form, it's where he got his head cut off and it's particularly sensitive to the touch.

to go a long with his supernatural beauty , his voice on the raspy-er side of a woman's lilt ( if you've ever heard scar lip , that's what he sounds like especially when she growls: example one , example two ) with a deep and soft resonance to it. it's liquid cognac in your ear, sweeter when it pitches up like with excitement and spicier when whispered or spoken normally.

𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐎𝐊𝐉𝐔𝐍𝐆𝐃𝐎𝐍𝐆 : 𝒕𝒆𝒎𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕.

Saint is jaded and wary of humans. he believes them incredibly destructive, terrifyingly ignorant, and maliciously indifferent toward anything they don't understand or aren't them. if he could , he would avoid them entirely. his hate and distrust of them runs incredibly deep. is it any wonder that he views them as little more than a source of food?

he doesn't believe in doing anything out of kindness nor does he believe anyone does anything out of the kindness of their hearts. he won't allow anyone to do anything for him without returning it. there's no such thing as helping him and expecting nothing in return. no, he settles his scores immediately and completely. he won't owe anyone anything , especially because people often repay kindness with betrayal. there's an aggressiveness to him in his normal demeanor. in truth , he was once very sweet and kind and lovely . . . he is still deep down , but he's so ANGRY and hurt that he has an air of an angry, angry person deep down.

if someone could get him to relax his suspicion nature , they would realize that he's actually very sweet and a bit more naive than he wants to seem. he's never been touched friendly or affectionately before , he doesn't know what love of any kind feels like but he thinks he might know when he speaks to his mama , he's never been hugged , and he's only kissed to put his jewel in the bellies of a target. he's a virgin and he's never even fell in love. Saint actually couldn't even tell you what happens in the martital bed or with other prostitutes. hes never even bothered wondering what it feels like to mate . . . he's never thought of finding a mate. he feels he's meant to be alone.

( + ) AMBITIOUS: saint has an unerring sense of ambition that refuses to die or be swayed away from this path he's undertaken. there's no question that he'll keep going and going no matter what happens to him or what stands in his way.

( + ) CHARMING: despite his often standoffish nature , he's incredibly charming. part of it is due to the way his beauty often disarms people and makes him look trustworthy in the eyes of others and the other part is the magnetism that surrounds his mysterious and enigmatic figure.

( + ) HONEST: though he is for all intents and purposes an evil spirit of vengeance and destruction , he's still naively honest. because of this trait , he'll often resort to lies by omission rather than to outright tell a fib.

( + ) EMPATHIC: he's empathic to the plights of animals , babies of any species , and women of any species. though he doesn't hate human men , they've been largely regarded with suspicion and seen almost solely as prey. human men were the awful things that killed him and he has a hard time regarding them with anything other than apprehension and fear.

( + ) FLIRTATIOUS: the art of seduction is something he very much enjoys. he may not like being touched and he may not like other beings in his space , but he absolutely loves the delicate dance of it all. ever since he was taught how to ensnare and captivate, he's grown attached to being stared at and admired. he may not fully understand desire, but he wishes very much to one day experience it.

( + ) NURTURING: Saint is naturally a figure of nurture and care when it concerns little ones. even human children are precious, no matter what they'll become later on in life. if he ever had people he cared for, they would experience the way he would groom and care for them meticulously.

( + ) PLAYFUL: he can't help but his playful nature. there's a sense of whimsy that can be found in him and his curiosity. the world is big and full of the unknown , why spend so much time entertaining a dark outlook twenty-four seven? he'll often play pranks and mess with people to alleviate his boredom.

( — ) INTROVERTED: due to the way he was raised , he's a solitary type of being. it conflicts heavily with the necessary methods he must use to procure sustenance. in truth , he isn't used to the presence of another being in his space. he often avoids touch for as long as possible in any situation. however , he is incredibly touch starved and affection hungry. there's a pitiful cry for companionship and understanding in him that's suppressed and smothered out of fear he'll be disliked and called evil the moment everyone sees the true him.

( — ) MISCHIEVOUS: it's no question that he's given to bouts of unchecked , unbridled mischief. he enjoys messing with others and he'll often find his amusement in ruining the days of others. pranks of a malicious nature, curses & hexes, and theft are ways he sometimes expresses himself. sometimes he'll grant the arrant wishes of strangers just to watch it all fall apart in their faces and bring them such misery.

( — ) CHILDISH: it should be noted that he died a young, inexperienced fox despite living to be 1,000 years old. he never got to experience a childhood as he had to grow up incredibly fast. before he left is oasis , he did next to nothing and he had no one. this has left him with a sense of childishness to him in that he's given to bursts of short temper, is argumentative, and is impulsive.

( — ) IMPULSIVE: impulse control isn't something that can be taught with no role models or examples to look up to. he's incredibly impulsive to the point that instant short-term gratification is sometimes outweighed even over potential long-term negative side effects. he will steal the pretty necklace he saw, buy the nice dress, steal that perfume, and take that woman's purse. it isn't always tied to material things, sometimes it's as simple as deciding to go on a long trip without prior planning or considering whether he'd truly like it or not.

( — ) INSECURE: Saint's incredibly insecure. believing that he is not accepted or liked by others and his sense of abandonment regarding his mother, is it any wonder that he's insecure deep down. a lot of his traits and actions can be directly traced down to this one very detrimental and mentally exhausting trait.

( — ) RESENTFUL: there are plenty of things that cause him to be resentful. he won't ever admit it or acknowledge it , but he's secretly resentful of his mother and his situation. he's resentful of his own nature and this existence he's lived so far. he resents humanity and others for not accepting and even hurting him.

( — ) SELF-INDULGENT: he's learned to be self-indulgent through his impulsive sense of wanting instant gratification. he's incredibly hungry and greedy for any positive thing to found in life. he indulges his passions, his whims, his appetites in whatever form they may take. he just wants to live and have fun. Saint just wants to have a good life.

𝘿𝙄𝙎𝙊𝙍𝘿𝙀𝙍𝙎 .

𝘒𝘓𝘌𝘗𝘛𝘖𝘔𝘈𝘕𝘐𝘈: due to his rebelliousness , he's refused to consider the laws on man as applicable to him. as such, he's developed a bad habit of stealing and sleight of hand to get what he wants. it could be said that he has a problem , but really he has no problems — the people he steals from have the problem with it. there's not really a sense of wrong attached to it , but he does get a rush when he steals something BIG and EXPENSIVE and IMPORTANT. he gets a rush out of knowing whoever lost it is going to be very upset that it's missing. he often uses it as a means of distraction from his depression with adrenaline and nice things. he does have a slight addiction to it and the feeling of getting away with something is heady.

𝐱𝟖𝟓 𝐲𝐞𝐨𝐰𝐨𝐨 𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐮𝐥 ( 여우구슬, literally meaning fox marble ) which is said to consist of knowledge. the Yeowoo guseul, provides life essence to the Kumiho. The method of absorbing energy with the “yeowoo guseul” resembles the action of kissing. The kumiho transfers the yeowoo guseul from their mouth into the humans' mouths and then retakes it after a period of time when enough life essence is collected. The yeowoo guseul embeds itself somewhere along the abdominal area where the life chi is, then begins to collect the life essence. The yeowoo guseul can only stay in the human body for 1-year before killing the host from completely draining their life essence. It is also notable that, once the yeowoo guseul is taken back from the human host, the human host will be left with no memory of the kumiho or the yeowoo guseul, given that the yeowoo guseul has been taken back before the 1-year time. Saint's eaten so many other weaker one - two tailed Kumiho that he possessed enough to make a graduated pearl choker necklace out of with the biggest being his own. he is able to change their appearance to that of a pearl or diamond necklace. the only reason they haven't lost power, broke or crumbled, or refused to heed his command is because the essence of the original soul is his now. he can use them exactly as he did his own original pearl.

𝘅𝟭 “𝗴𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘅𝗶𝗿” 𝗻𝗲𝗶𝗱𝗮𝗻 , a pearl thats able to absorb life essence through semen. he often gives this to a prostitute to swallow and lets it absorb semen through them.

𝘅𝟰 𝗛𝗼𝘀𝗵𝗶 𝗻𝗼 𝗧𝗮𝗺𝗮 ( translates to “star ball” ) the gem is said to hold the owner's magic power, and that the kitsune will die if is staying too long separated from its gem. unlike it's counterparts, the gem itself is largely useless to other than it's pretty appearance, since he's already taken their previous owners power. however , it can be used to gain bits and pieces of the knowledge the kitsune possessed. none of the kitsune he'd killed were old or learned enough to truly help , so they're VERY USELESS.

𝘅𝟰𝟱 𝗰𝗿𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 , the tails of all the defeated kumiho / kitsune / huli jing have been turned into crystal shards that can be broken and used as conduits to strengthen a spell. it's essential a “sacrifice” as the power of that tail is used up and it can't be put back together again. they don't possess any real power left, but in sacrificing them it's seen as a heavenly / divine act of sacrifice even if they aren't his and it grants him a boon to his spells.

𝘅𝟭 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗯 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗶𝗿𝗿𝗼𝗿 , the comb was enchanted by a six-tailed kitsune named Kagawa Shinju and given to her daughter Hanako, a born kitsune with only two tails that he killed for her inate potential. the cerise comb is enchanted to make hair shine, make it soft, and style it into any style with ease with a single thought. the cerise mirror can be used to scry and look in on people that have given you explicit permission into their lives.

🦊 𝐊𝐀𝐆𝐀𝐖𝐀❟ 𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐉𝐔 ( 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒓𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒆 𝑭𝒐𝒙 ) — the six-tailed fox in possession of the heavenly fire attribute , known for her wild frenzies and her temperamental nature. She has a sharp, very beautiful face. she is prone to violence, constantly looks for the loophole, and she believes in destiny. she is branded as a fox that's been trapped in the Onaga Locks on her chest , showing her former life as an “evil” fox. she was always an absentee mother as most kitsune are , but she loved her little Hanako more than she loved life itself. the little girl and her blessed birth is what made her turn her life around and get rid of her former proclivities. turning face and working hard to change her ways has earned her the heavenly fire attribute through years and years of hardwork and meditation. when she came to visit her little Hanako at her temple, she was enraged to find it ransacked and her daughter's energy gone. she searched and prayed for heaven to help her find out what happened to her daughter. when she finally learned it, she went on a rampage and vowed to kill Saint.
