Creature: Kitsune
Origin: Japan ("kitsune" means "fox" in Japanese)
Type: mythical
Lifespan: immortal (technically)
Weaknesses: icy weather یا water saps their energy, high metabolisms (meaning they must consume مزید food than most humans to stay healthy)
Strength is drawn from: other kitsune, heat, red meat (so... not really vegetarians)
Common traits: quick tempers (especially when around other kitsune), glowing irises at certain times
Summary: First documentation of a kitsune was in the 4th century A.D. as creature of myth in Japan. Full blooded kitsune have the ability to shape-shift into any person یا a select specie of fox. Half-bloods cannot shape-shift. The most common trait of this creature is its nine lives (full bloods, when in لومڑی form, have nine tails). However, these nine lives come with a price. For one, all kitsune, full یا half blood, die for the first time soon after they are born. This leaves them with eight lives growing up. No lives can be regained (supposedly way back, European fishermen travelled through the sea of Japan to trade in ports East Asia. There were constantly attacked سے طرف کی territorial kitsune. One fox, recognizable for its almost black فر, سمور that caused it to be mistaken for a witch's black cat, was killed again and again until it died for good. This is where the Europeans got the saying "a cat has nine lives.")
Secondly, every death leaves a scar یا injury that is either physical, emotion, mental, یا a combination of the three. Physical injuries will heal enough to keep the kitsune from dying again سے طرف کی the same injury. The مزید lives that are lost, the longer it takes to heal.
3: there are few kitsune left in the world. Starting in early 15th century and lasting until the 19 century, witch hunters mistook many of these shape-shifters as magic wielders. Witches themselves also fought and killed kitsune due to territorial disputes. Because of these reasons, most of this species has been wiped out یا driven into secluded locations such as mountain ranges.
4: Clans of kitsune, which can be family یا unrelated, are rare. This is due to there being few left as well as the avoidance of having to deal with a bunch of hot headed foxes. Also, the head of a clan is deemed the responsibility of carrying the memories of each kitsune's lineage- which is the memories of the lives and deaths of ancestors of each kitsune. These memories often occur during dreams. Other kitsune can have memories of a select few ancestors, but leaders are the only ones that can have every single one, willingly یا not.
5: Due to the same lineage connection that allows a kitsune to share the memories of an ancestor, members of this species often feel "displaced." This means they feel as if they belong to an earlier time period, supposedly that of an ancestor of which they are strongly connected. سے طرف کی embodying the language and customs of کہا time period, a kitsune can suppress the feeling of being "displaced" as well as avoid the memories shared with an ancestor and the quick temper associated with this species.
6: When kistune are dying, their bodies focus on getting them to safety before their bodies shut down. This instinct causes a supernatural anger and strength that protects the injured individual, as well as disabled the minds ability to feel pain. While in this state, they rarely recognize anyone یا thing. This state is also accompanied سے طرف کی glowing irises.
7: Kitsune can technically live forever, until all nine lives are spent. However, the "curse of the kitsune" is that these beings attract much violence and death to themselves and the people around them. This keeps most life spans about that of an average human, if not less. This has also earned them the cursed name "shinigami." A shinigami, in Japanese myth, is a harbinger of death. This is about the equivalent of a demon in western culture.
8: A common practice of parents of this species with half-blood children is not telling their children about what they are. If a kitsune does not know about their ancestry یا abilities, the memories shared with ancestors are suppressed. The ability to come back from death is explained as miracles, but آپ can imagine that this excuse only works so many times. Most kitsune realize یا suspect what they are, though most half bloods never learn of all of their true heritage.
Last, but not least: members of this species often identify سے طرف کی how many lives they have left with a fraction. For instance, one who has lost two lives would be 1 of 7, three lost lives would be 1 of 6, etc. Those who have lost the most lives are کہا to have "lived the most lives" and are regarded as the eldest and wisest. It is کہا that the kitsune is whole when they are 1 of 1, where the اگلے death would result in final resting death.
Known kitsune: Aleksander Sansaovich Felis Jr. (alive, 1 of 5), Noëlle Felis (alive, 1 of 8), Ana Rome (alive, 1 of 7), Aomori Nanashi (deceased), Dr. Aleksander Nikolaevich Felis Sr. (status unknown, 1 of ?)

Brendan stood in his Navy uniform in silence.
"Why....why did آپ do it?" He pulled off his hat, and stared at the memorial, it was a tribute to the fallen soldiers. Brendan dipped his finger in black paint, and started writing his دوستوں name on the wall. They begged آپ not to go into this. آپ knew it was suicide mission, escpically with your powers. She begged آپ gods sake. I don't get why آپ did it...but I guess آپ made your choice. Tears slid down Brendans face I guess, آپ felt it was your place, to take that spot. But آپ brought down a evil force, a force so strong, that only آپ could break it. The Government will pay. They'll pay for what they put آپ through. I swear I'll avenge your death. Brendan wiped his hands clean and walked away. He had thirty-hours until he boarded the submarine, that's when his plan went underway.
Anyone got any idea who sacrificed themself?
