Kitsune reach adulthood around the age of 20, but a Kitsune’s life expectancy doubles with each tail they gain, and rumor claims that nine-tailed Kitsune become immortal - a gift the great tricksters have stolen from the gods. Rumors not withstanding, many Kitsune live for several centuries.

You are a Humanoid.

You are Medium

Your walking speed is 30 feet.

You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

You gain a second tail at level 5, and additional tails at Level 7, 9, 11, 13, 15,17 and 20. Your tails are a symbol of your magic power. As an action on your turn, you can restore expended spell slots with a combined level equal to your number of tails, but none of which can be 5th level or higher. Once you’ve restored spell slots in this way, you cannot do so again until you finish a long rest.

You know the Minor Illusion Cantrip and can cast Disguise Self at will, but you can only take the appearance of persons whose true full name is known to you. When disguised in such a way, the illusion always hides your ears and tails.

Starting at 5th level, you gain the ability to steal a creature’s shadow. As an action, make a Sleight of Hand check against their passive Perception. On a success, you steal their shadow and it remains with you until you finish a long rest or until you steal another shadow. Subsequently, you can once cast the Major Image spell without requiring components and without expending a spell slot to create an eerily accurate facsimile of that creature. 

The light of a full moon or the moonbeam spell dispels your illusions, revealing your or their true form.

You gain proficiency with one of the following skills of your choice: Acrobatics, Deception, Performance, Persuasion, Sleight of Hand or Stealth.

Your character can speak, read, and write Common and one other language of your choice.
