And is he in the habit of making offers to people?

The Trickster gives you a wolfish grin. "To people great and small, high and low. An equitable exchange, oftentimes just made to see how they'll react, discover what they value. I am, after all, infamous for being the one of the Seven most inclined to have dealings with everyday people, am I not?"


Keros is the God of Trickery and one of The Seven. He is closely tied to The Old Country and the Kitsune, who are said to be descended from him and his twelve concubines. Keros is a playful and mischievous deity, but can be unbelievably cruel when he deems it appropriate. Very mercurial, he is jovial one second and cold as ice the next. Keros keeps a close eye on the colonials in the Kurokawa Kitsune Den and you can draw his attention by performing tasks that aid his people in establishing a power base in the Frost Marches.

"Keros is the trickster, the god of deception and illusion and mysteries. He's perhaps the most feared of the gods by mortal folks like you and I, but also the one that intervenes among us most. If you pray to the sly fox, he might just answer your prayers — so word them carefully, lest you get exactly what you wished for! His folk are the kitsune, and he is patron of thieves, charlatans, and gamblers."
Brother Sanders

Appearance

The speed at which it happens is shocking — there's no fading in, no transmutation of stone to flesh. One moment the likeness of the Living God is in the recess, a cold statue, the next he's rolling his limbs and stepping down by the altar's side, giving Miko's ass a hefty swat with one hand while the other picks up a huge, juicy peach from the altar.

"Don't stand on ceremony, Komari." Many-colored robes sweep dramatically across the plinth in its recess as Keros steps off and eyes the den matron. He tosses the peach into the air, swats it with one of his nine tails, and it arcs through the air to land perfectly in Mai's hands. "I came as soon as you requested my presence. Can't have my favorite servant all huffy and out of sorts, can I?"

He's saying the words — and your mind swears that he did, but your ears swear with equal vehemence that nothing of the sort passed them.

The colors on his clothing, they continuously shift and swirl against a backdrop of white, not moving when you're looking at them but very clearly having changed when you turn your gaze away and back again. His eyes dart from Komari to you, and then the Trickster's smile widens.

Interactions

Freeing Kiyoko


Once you've cleared Den of Foxes and Meet and Greet, you will have the Freeing Kiyoko option available in Komari's menu. She will summon Keros to turn your Amulet of Union into a fox-family. If it's still an Amulet of Transference, he will ask you to please accede to Kiyoko's request to fill her with chi so he has the material he needs to forge a new body for her. And to grow a penis if need be to complete the task.

When you're ready to begin, he will take the orb and bring Kiyoko, Kinu, and any other kits into the real world. However, in their pocket dimension, ten years have passed since they last saw you. As per the Law of Equitable Exchange, he was giving you something truly precious by bringing your family into the world. As such you needed to give something precious back, like a decade with your family. However, Keros is kind enough to partially restore Kiyoko's old home seemingly free of charge.

Keros's Offer


Keros makes himself known to you again if you make yourself useful to his people. Once you've completed Artifice Testing or For Want Of A Nail from Nakano, the deity appears in the gardens to make you an offer. What if he were to take your soul and keep it safe for you? Forever?

Keros explains that Kitsune are by definition soulless husks that draw from a communal soul, rather than possessing their own. If you accept his offer, you would become one of his people, though you would still have a decoy soul implanted in you to deceive the various malicious forces trying to claim your soul.

You only get to take the offer once, and it is permanent. There are other members of The Seven who may be interested in making you a similar offer, but you will be barred from doing so if you pledge yourself to Keros. Furthermore, you will not be able to pledge yourself to other beings invested in your soul, such as Kasyrra.

If you choose Bind to accept Keros's offer, he is delighted. Depending on the time of day, either of Miko and Mai or both will be present to assist in the process. Then, he rips your soul out of your body, tucks it under his coat, and it's gone forever.

Either Kiyoko or the attending shrine maidens are quickly by your side, holding you steady as Keros rearranges you in his image. You are given some options for how you want your new kitsune form to look. You will also have a number of tails equal to your level minus one, and you will quickly discover that having your head or tails petted now feels extraordinarily good.

  • Eye Colours: Red, Blue, Green, Brown, Black, Gold
  • Hair/Fur Colours: White, Grey, Orange, Blonde, Red, Black, Brown
  • Skin Colours: Pale, Bronze, Dark

And then he's done. There are a bunch more things you need to know about kitsune society or being his Champion, but Keros feels it would be funnier watching you figure it out for yourself. You can choose Reincarnate to 'reset' your kitsune form if need be.

Lady Keros


Then you notice who they're conversing with — a fine-featured, rather conventionally pretty kitsune with nine tails and white fur. One of their high aristocrats, maybe? You do remember the significance of natural white fluff for their kind, and she does carry herself with that bearing...


Once you've received Keros's offer of becoming a Kitsune — whether or not you accepted it — there is a 1/3 chance of an event triggering when you visit his shrine by the Waystone. Miko and Mai are speaking with a noble lady kitsune, who is quickly revealed to be Keros. He sometimes takes on alternate guises to walk amongst the people, including a decade as a tanuki noodle seller. While a white-furred, nine-tailed kitsune in a many-coloured coat may not be the most inventive disguise, Keros assures you most people are too attached to what's possible to recognise the impossible when it's right in front of them. Keros bids you farewell, though hints that he may be willing to visit you in this guise more often if you find it appealing.

After you've completed this event, the Petition? button unlocks at the shrine, which you can use to meet femKeros.

Sex

If you Petition Keros at his shrine, you get some private time with the deity. Tooltips vary depending on whether you've taken Keros's offer to become his Champion.

  • Spanking: [You've been a very bad champion, and dishonoured his name by your actions. Clearly, this needs some kind of punishment. / You've been a very bad [pc.race], and have come here for repentance and absolution from a god himself. Who better to ask, after all?]
  • Copulate: [Beg your patron deity to help you put out your heat. / Beg the deity to help put out your heat.] (requires being in Heat)
  • Lap Fuck: Have a seat and share your woes with [your patron deity. / a literal god.]
  • Vanilla: Sometimes, the familiar is all you need.
  • Threesome: Two is too lonely, the more the merrier. And let's be frank, there's someone just outside who would like nothing better than to join in the fun.
  • Headpats: (requires being a Kitsune)

DESC

  • Patslut: It's well-known that headpats can reduce kitsune to moaning, drooling wrecks when applied properly. One can only wonder if this applies to their patron deity, too...
  • Get Ridden: Have this goddess press you into the floor of her little shrine under her in a full amazon press. [It'll be a fun bit of tribbing, that's for sure.]
  • Maidens 4Sum: Have the August Mistress at the Center of Heaven summon her servants to attend to you.
  • Mating: Ears and tails, with fur to boot... push the August Mistress at the Center of Heaven to the ground of the little shrine and fuck like the animals you were meant to be. (requires penis)
  • Nursing HJ: Have [your / the] goddess [jerk you off / finger you] while you suck on her tits.
  • Tail Bondage: Those tails are so alluring… you wouldn't mind having more of them against you, maybe even inside you if it comes to that...

DESC

  • Dream Yandere
  • Dream Bellyjob
  • Dream Preg Worship
