Lost tails?

[Preacher]

In short, can kitsune lose their tails via injury or otherwise and if so what would happen to them if that were to occur?

 

[TheShepard256]

Since they're a body part, I assume they can be lost to injury. Since they're also a measure of how much an individual is in Keros's favour (or something like that), I also assume lost tails can be regenerated relatively easily in order to maintain that measure, and that tails can be lost naturally if that individual loses favour with Keros somehow.

The rules for tails is that you start with a minimum of 2, and gain them as you level up, you will always have 1 less than your current level, unless that number is less than 2. You cannot lose them as they are only apparent in the body part reference list, it'd be the same as asking if you can lose your arm, they're not real world entities.

I know their mechanics, I was just asking in a sense of if kitsune were like unicorns in that if the tails were cut off would they lose their power or something like that. I know that'd probably never happen in this game even with a hypothetical kitsune NPC that was enslaved or something and that happened during their time enslaved, BUT, if they're physical body parts that tie in to their power/favor and were forcefully removed one way or another then my curiosity ties in to the magical, physical, and metaphysical consequences of said act.

I'm feeling particularly impure right now, perhaps she could perform harae on me to make it all better...

Everyone knows that Shinto fuckery, along with phone apps and internet drugs, are the leading causes of gender bender in hentai.

Followed closely by having a mother/girlfriend/jilted lover/rival who happens to know magic.

That pic is of Hana. She's my contribution to the floof master race. Like Tobs' said, you might say she made a deal with a devil for a dong :^)

Magical hot springs are another known cause of many transformations. Fortunately, they tend to be isolated. Only an idiot would seek one out.

 

[Savin]

When might we meet Hana? She looks yummy.

Sometime in 2020.

At this rate I'm never going to know what the consequences are for a kitsune who lost their tails via injury or other. I'll just go with shep's post for now, even if it's speculative.
