So I'm not sure if it was a throw away joke or a hint but is Kitsune able to make tea that does the exact same thing as the one alchemical potion we actually have?
 
Unrelated to the update, but consider the following:

Our biggest specialty as a King, if we can be said to have one, would either be genetics or robotics.

We're heavily investing into our Occult infrastructure, and stand to be one of the stonger Occult forces on the board once we finally get Mal over.

Doof's inventions are capable of outright reality warping, and he's willing to try even the most absurd of ideas.

We've got someone in the rolodex whose whole schtick is blending occult and science.


Put all that together, and we could actually make magitech AIs or bioengineered dragons or what have you from first principles.

We could have our future social media platform hooked up to Galfed translation software to allow easy global integration, and run it with an bleeding edge AI capable of using both predictive analytics and outright divination to deliver content, suggest friends or romantic matches, murder incursions from the MCP, and otherwise run the service.

We could have magically reinforced Normbot armies to accompany our dragonrider infantry.

And if anyone asked, we could claim it was all science, no broken Masquerades here.


We've got a lot of defensive work to do, and some other stressful setup stuff to attend to, but there's still plenty of cool stuff in our future to look forward to. Hell, it's probably only going to be 2-3 turns until we can set up our own Jurassic Park, and won't that be neat?
 
I don't think we have much room to talk about difficult personalities given our employment of Dr. Jumba Jookiba and Janna. In fact, Janna was introduced by doing a very similar thing to Max, so I can see why they'd get along. I'm sure we will find her presence as tolerable as Janna's, whatever that level may be.

It may not be what Kitsune did so much as who she did it to. If it had been anyone else in that situation I probably would have found it amusing. But it wasn't just anyone, it was Vanessa. Whether the danger was real or not, my knee-jerk response to a threat to Doof's daughter is "I'm gonna skin a fox". Might be a double standard, but that's my take on it.

Clearly the solution is to set up Doof and Kitsune so that she'll be too attached to Doof and his family to eat them.
 
I amended the post, but here's the reward description for anyone who doesn't want to go back and look.

---

Kitsune has joined Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated! She's a five-tailed demon fox with power over illusions and explosives. Kitsune knows a lot about supernatural forces and spreading misery to your enemies, but you don't want her within three hundred feet of Vanessa anymore.
 
Gah- A flaw that states she and Vanessa cannot go on quests together, I'm sure. Actually... not that bad. Woo! Explosions!
 
I wonder if Kitsune is actually her name and at what level of trust we'd need to get to to learn her real name.
 
Names carry with them a degree of power. One of the first things you should learn when dealing with supernatural creatures is to not reveal your true name.
Great, but the question here is: which line of lore do we follow? Is one's "True Name" their common name, known to many, or is it one of those "deep truth" things that grants power when you learn your own True Name but introduces that same weakness in you?
