Kitsune

## Summary

A traveler and explorer, Kitsune is a wealthy shop owner who dislikes remaining in one place and longs to explore the world.

## Backstory

Kitsune awoke within the plains outside of Riverside. Greeted by Whim, she was quickly brought to the town of nymph and taught about whispers of a far border surrounding the lands. Feeling a call to it, Kitsune traveled to the taller than life border, along the way picking up bits of memory from a forgotten past, before feeling a mysterious presence behind himself and blacking out. It is after this that much of the main storyline begins.

## Personality

Kitsune is a bright eyed traveler who is always looking for a way to make a profit. Unfortunately, this joyful nature has gotten them stuck in a few bad deals before. Kit is often able to strike a price with any rare treasure found along its journey, and has no political nor moral allegiances, sticking by whomever is paying more. (see Lady Iris)

## Relationships

#### Friendly relationships

~ Lady Iris ~ One of Kit's closest friends, Iris is always there to offer a warm meal or a safe rest after a long journey. Although Iris' obsession with himself is a little.. odd.. Kit was never one to turn down a business opportunity! As of currently, Iris pays Kit to pretend they like her - read as, free money!

~ Whim ~ Another close friend, the two met early on under the settlement of Nymph. Quickly getting along, they would often exchange gossip during Kit's visits to Riverside, and Whim was one of Kit's first customers in the lands of LHCB. Although they have different morals and ideals, the two enjoy each others company and often share a glass of Kit's famous Honey Gin.

~ Nit ~ A kind citizen of Riverside, Kit has no reason to dislike Nit. She often offers furnaces for Kit to use, and the two have exchanged friendly greetings more than once. Despite this, Kit feels as if something is wrong with the kind cow.

#### Neutral relationships

~ Josh ~ A odd fellow whom Kit knows little of, other than the annexing of Nymph. He thinks this annexing is fine, as no one was using the land otherwise.

~ Bob ~ An annoying gnat who is hard to sell to. Kit can appreciate a stubborn buyer, but Bob is just ridiculous.

~ Aloeve ~ Kit has only met Aloeve briefly, but they seem kind. Aloeve also lives with Lady Iris, which concerns Kit slightly.

~ Work ~ Kit has met Work a few times, often selling him golden apples. He seems lively and kind, but due to their limited interactions Kit has yet to form a full opinion of him.

~ Talon ~ Kit has not met Talon.

~ Bubba ~ Kit has not met Bubba.

#### ???

~ Fratricide ~ The two have met a few times, with Kit giving Fratricide gifts such as cake and them giving Kit odd books. Kitsune finds the religion around them to be absurd, and believes they have something to do with the border confining them to these lands. However, due to the limited proof, he has kept these concerns to herself.

## Shops

Kitsune owns one shop, a cart in Riverside. It holds a rotating stock of goods from far lands, including Netherite and Totems of Undying.

## Plot Items

#### Compass

~ Kit owns a Compass, named "Spiritfarer." It is the sister compass to Lady Iris' Pathseeker, and is very important to Kit.

#### Honey Gin

~ Kitsune often brews Honey Gin, a family recipe from a family that likely wasn't his own. This gin is enjoyed by much of Riverside, although it is not sold in Kit's cart; the only way to obtain it is to speak to Kitsune directly.
