Description
Hailing from Chuzhei, in what most people call Far Orias, Keyong is beyond mysterious. Her appearance is that of a beautiful and vivacious young woman, with the addition of several curious features. She possesses the ears - and thus the hearing - of a fox, and sharp little animal-like canine teeth, and the most obvious of all her strange qualities, a collection of large, luxurious fox tails.Keyong arrived in the kingdom of Charlier unannounced in the spring of 1570 in the Great Age of Kings carrying a writ addressed to King Adall Baldine from Emperor Lim Dai Huang identifying her as his ambassador and representative. This in of itself was not overly unusual, as the great Emperors to the east had of late taken an interest in some amount of carefully-curated contact with the Lorentian Kings. It was simply the ambassador's appearance that caused such a stir.
Over the following two years, Keyong has made herself an important and well-loved part of Adall's court in Greenwall Hold. Adored by the King for her beauty and favored by Lord Treasurer Garrick Darrane for her ability to work quietly and discreetly.

oh, she's really pretty and like the way her teeth appears and to see her wearing no shoes nor sandals.

Quietly and discreetly are certainly two words that popped into mind when I saw this character.
Everything about her in her design, expression and pose really points out a character who is wise
and clever. Even beyond mysterious is another word that comes to mind too.
From the use of color combination. Green, and yellow, reminded me of corn, and red for the sense of
wonder, of what will pop up from her, when things heat up. She's a walking Jiffy Pop, that's full of
mysterious surprises. XD
Well that pretty much concludes my interpretation. It's a brief one, but mysterious characters are always interesting.
Overall, an interesting looking character, nicely drawn.

I'd say she's really a gumiho since her name comes from Korean, but that's being a bit pedantic. Instead, I'll say thanks!

Cute tails! And now I wonder how her dress and coat are cut in back to let those tails out!

I... should probably look into the right stitching to accommodate that many tails.

VERY intelligent design. As we just talked about, this arouses the idea of cultures history kept no account of. What a gorgeous and intrepidly composed creature she is. Beautiful take on the vixen-maidens of Asian lore!

You know, I didn't think of creatures like Keyong to have a culture all their own. They're cunning, and they adapt to the culture around them so they can pass more easily. If anything she's a monster trying to make her way in a civilized world. And a sudden vacancy for the posting of ambassador would do nicely.

Monster??? Hardly. Look at her! That is far too much charm for these people to handle

Mmmm, yes. Watch out, she's pretty, but you never know what hides behind that smile...
