How do I start it? I tried to go to the den figured it will automatically proc, but it didn’t, went to kiyokos house thought it would proc there, but no dice
Kinu quest
- Thread starter Skylinegtr34
- Start date
really? I didn’t see the option, but I’ll check again, thanks
am I supposed to ask her about a specific character?, or is there a separate option to ask her that triggers it, if so what’s the option, I went through all of them and nothing, can you send a picture of the dialogue option?

It'll become available eventually, usually after the bump in the night random Kinu event, but when it does, it'll start through her when you ask her to tell her story, since by that point it's already happened.
Also, do you know how to beat the boss? It seems like he two shots me everytime, while I do like 10 damage, and the mass drain doesn’t work on him
Just finished it myself, and I must say, I greatly look forward to meeting this character in the wilds and gutting them like a fish.
You (as in the Champion) won't be allowed to, satisfying as it may be. It's Kinu's story and part of her stepping out of her parents' shadows and becoming her own person. But you may be able to get back at the person behind Raphael directly...
as long as someone *cough*Kinu*cough* kills him, i'd be really grateful and happy. 
If you think the PC is the one who's supposed to punish Raphael for Kinu, just refer to the relationships between these three characters.
Hey i'm down for that, although i'm sure whatever tobs writes is going to be good anyway.
I am deeply invested in the Kinu story. I came to coc2 for smut and ended up finding a different kind of love ;0;
my only issue with kinu is that to me her dialogue sounds flat, by that I mean she doesn’t seem cheery, i know that she has to be lady like and all, but when she’s not doing her duties, I would liked her to be happy, like when the champ visits Kiyokos home, that she would get happy greet and hug the champ, and I hoped that the text would mention that she would smile at times
If you have Hime Kinu, you're gonna get that vibe because Kitsune being proper is very formal and stiff to read. If Kiyoko's way of talking feels stiff to you by any chance, Hime Kinu will follow the same.
Inari Kinu is less flat and more "normal" for someone not upholding that formality to talk like. Inari Kinu reminds me of how I talk even, and I'm not at all proper or formal.

Story reasons aside, Kinu is massively overpowered. Most companions have a 3-4 stat point bonus over the PC to make up for their relative inflexibility; Kinu gets a total of +6 for her personality, coupled with another +4 for her weapon choice, not to mention that she gets 2 actions a round.
She is meant to play and feel like a child prodigy.

oh, I didnt realize that. I thought she was pretty weak when I played her in kinuquest, not that I was looking too too hard. Her powers felt properly OP, as you'd expect for a bunch of solo combat, but her attacks were wet noodles. Can we get more weapon training scenes with her as an adult? cuz clearly she hasn't been doing a good enough job during the ~10 year gap :V
the one with the black eyeliner
well kiyoko for me, is a bit less stiff, I don no, everytime kinu talks, I get a picture in my head that she has a blank expression, even when she shows happiness, she shows it with that blank expression
I want an opportunity after this quest happens for the PC to train his eldest (named) childrens fighting skills further, as a soldier and a father it seems only proper in case an event similar to this were to happen again.
Also it would be a chance to interact with some of your kitsune children other than Kinu which is sort of lacking honestly.

Throwing in my two cents here, the Champion is supposed to be (at least as I see it) a powerful and capable prodigy in their own right partway through the game, and Kinu has that cranked up to 11 by virtue of being the Champion's kid, being taught by Kiyoko and Komari at a minimum (and potentially the Champion directly), and implied divine intervention from Keros. The fact that she's close to or already surpassing the Champion when she's only just reaching adulthood should be expected, given how heavily the odds are stacked in her favor. I'd honestly have been more surprised if she wasn't a shoe in for succeeding the PC as Champion at some point in the future (after the end of the game) when she finally got to show what she can do.
Considering how many children its easy to have as the PC even without trying she'll just be one of many future champions striding the land. Also as an individual she seems heavily tied to the Kitsune colony while other kids would have a higher possibility of travelling freely.
If anything the next generation won't just have one champion or a band of heroes saving the day, it'll have a fucking army.

On the topic of Kinu -- and partially because this issue is small enough that I don't think it warrants its own thread -- has anyone noticed a strange description problem when it comes to meeting her in the den? During "daytime" hours, this message is there:
There is no button to speak with her in this state, though, which is strange.
Waiting a few hours until the early morning gives this message:
Under this situation, the button *is* visible -- I should note that I have Hime Kinu. This seems like an oversight, though: shouldn't the talk option be switched?

On that note, hopefully the Champion leaves behind a list of all their offspring and said offspring's other parents (or at least best guess in the cases where baby mama/daddy is a generic character from a post encounter hookup) somewhere, unlike Victor from TiTS. If only to prevent their kids from recreating "Shade and Steele accidently find out they're half siblings after they've hooked up (likely several times) before they knew" post CoC2.
I actually love all of Shade's content, but it's still a bit of a shock the first time you see it.
Looking forward to this list being extremely simple for my Champions.
