The youngest daughter of the Qingqiu fox clan, a spirit spreading the culture of ancient auspiciousness.

Personality

Agile and witty, charmingly mischievous. Loves listening to and telling mortal stories. Playful and teasing on the surface, but deeply cares about her clan reputation. Measured in action, always keeps her promises.

Worldview Story

The Shan Hai Jing records that on Mount Qingqiu there is a beast shaped like a fox with nine tails, whose cry sounds like a baby. Hu Yao took form in the moonlight of Qingqiu, of the generation that cultivated the nine-hundredth small tail to completion. Growing up she often crouched on the peak listening to mortal gossip below; when scholars wrote nine-tailed foxes as bringers of calamity, her tails knotted in anger. She resolved to descend and retell the Qingqiu story in her own image, telling the world that nine tails were originally omens of peace in high antiquity. She carries a camellia branch, and at every village performs a passage of old Qingqiu tales with illusion magic, then leaves — only moonlight remains scattered on the ground.
