Encyclopedia Entry:
A monster covered in wavering flames possessing the characteristics of a fox. They’re born when vast amounts of condensed demonic energy and excessive lust from either “youko” or “inari” takes shape and changes into a monster, so they’re close to elementals. Lots of them live near yoko and inari with many tails. As for inari, in the same way that they use demonic energy, they don’t produce kitsune-bi without thinking it through, but just as yoko are always scattering around demonic energy, in the same way, they produce large amounts of kitsune-bi and release them nearby.
