Kaiton, Ethereal TricksterEdit
Tales speak of an arrogant trickster fox who, for making a fool of a God, was utterly destroyed, yet his unresting spirit still torments the God's realm.
Level: 4th
Binding DC: 21
Special Requirement: Yes
LegendEdit
It is said that Kaiton was from a race of magical foxes rival to the kitsunes; the three-tailed fox was an arrogant prince of his people. When the Gods visited the realm, Kaiton managed to trick a God into making a fool of itself. The God, fuming in anger after being humiliated by such a lowly being, destroyed Kaiton on the spot. However, for reasons unknown, the fox survived as a vestige. It is said Kaiton himself was tricked into tricking the God by a kitsune, and so he holds an incredible grudge against them.
Special summoningEdit
Kaiton the Ethereal Trickster can only be summoned in natural terrain with tall grass. Additionally, the Binder may attempt to answer one of its riddle; if she does (DC 16 intelligence check), she automatically make a good pact with Kaiton. If she fails, the binding DC of Kaiton increases by +5, as it is displeased. Kaiton will not make pacts with any kitsune.
ManifestationEdit
The tall grass seems to become disturbed and moves in an erratic fashion; finally, it settles and Kaiton appears as a three-tailed yellow and black fox.
SignEdit
You eyes are slammed shut and essentially become a thin black line; this does not hamper your vision in any way.
InfluenceEdit
You become a trickster, enjoying playing harmless or harmful (based on your alignment) tricks on people. Additionally, you want to answer any riddle you hear and bear great hatred toward kitsunes.
