Nezu Akitsu

"Ah, so this fledgling chooses to oppose the great youkai fox, Nezu? You, who lack your patron deities' protection, and whose boastful miracles have been exhausted by the wayside?!"

- Nezu, to Sanae

Nezu Akitsu is a wicked Kitsune who, many years in the past, was defeated by Hōjō Ujiyasu, while her power was sealed away by Fūma Kotarō, who changed her name to limit her powers. Her power remained suppressed even after the defeat of Hōjō, but, with her cunning, she was able to master the control over names that had once been used to seal her, and seeking to regain her power, schemed to have Fūma Mishandra release her from her prison so that she could exploit the brightened Tanabata to amass even more power than before.

Intelligence: Nezu is an exceptionally cunning kitsune, learning how to use the power of language and names to control others even when sealed into her fox form, and scheming to use Fuuma to escape her seal and regain her formidable power.

Weaknesses: Nezu's disguises still leave her ears and tail visible, making them generally ineffective. Her true power is sealed by the Fuuma Clan.
