Interesting fact:

The elegant Ninetails is based on Kitsune, which is the Japanese word for fox. In Japanese folklore, foxes are often depicted as possessing paranormal abilities. They’re famously intelligent beings, with their powers increasing with age. For every 100 years they live, they gain a new tail, finally culminating in nine tails of remarkable wisdom and power. So, not only is Ninetails elegant as hell, she’s wicked smart!
