Strengths and Weaknesses

           For every five strengths a kitsune acquires they must choose one weakness. Your kitsune self will know when to choose a strength and a weakness, which are all listed down below. A Ninetail doesn't have to choose weaknesses along with strengths. I recommend making your own copy of this list and keeping track of both. Just remember; you will usually gain your next tail before you choose even half of your strengths in one tail, but you can always go back to strengths from previous tails and choose them.
