Hakushin Clan

The is a prominent kitsune clan in Inazuma that managed the shrines around Mt. Yougou. It takes its name after its matriarch, Hakushin.
==History==
Little is currently known about the Hakushin Clan, but they were evidently very influential in Inazuma. The Kitsune Saiguu, a descendant of the clan matriarch Hakushin, was worshipped as a kitsune goddess. Yae Miko is also said to be related to the Hakushin Clan by blood. Hakushin had six apprentices, one of which was "Black Fox" Itaru. However, it is unclear whether her apprentices were tied to the clan by blood.
The Hakushin Lands are located at the base of Mt. Yougou. After the Kitsune Saiguu's death, the shrine and the surrounding area were left abandoned. Many years after the cataclysm which claimed her life, Kamuna Harunosuke and Hanachirusato briefly returned to the area to perform a Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual. In the present, Yae Miko and the shrine maidens of the Grand Narukami Shrine were making preparations to hold a Sacred Sakura Cleansing Ritual when the Traveler appeared, and Yae Miko instead left the completion of the ritual to them. Miko also takes the Traveler to the area for her Anti-Raiden Shogun Training program.
Ioroi mentions that the comb he stole from the Sky Kitsune Statue in Chinju Forest contains the Hakushin symbol.
