I hate that I have to include this but PLEASE DO NOT DELETE THE IMAGE SOURCE OR MY CAPTION. (Read about the mythological Huli jing Here. When the victim falls ill with tuberculosis, the huli jing leaves it. It seduces victims and vampirizes the victims of the life force during orgasm.

The huli jing rises from its grave and shape-shifts into a seductive woman, scholar, or old man. Like elsewhere in the world, in the case of Vampire, Shezmu or various other creature attacks, local known specimens are often the first hauled in for questioning, though the Chinese Magical Ministry has a better track record than some in such cases, treating detained Huli-jings better than many detained vampires are elsewhere in the world. Huli Jing (fox fairy) In Chinese lore, a Demon that is the malevolent spirit of the returning dead. However there is almost always an element of Trickery to a Huli-jing’s interactions with any wix, leading to many of these creatures (marked as beings by the ICW and Chinese Magical Ministry) being registered and easily identifiable by the ministry should someone die at the hands of Huli-jing. While some will then kill their target, others may work with them, maliciously or benevolently, or they may be satisfied to stay where they are. Like Kitsune and Kumiho both the Huli-jing will often get their way by seducing a human (wix or otherwise).

They can also, like Kitsune and Kumiho, shapeshift and use glamours with powerful effect, taking apparent human forms when they will it. Known for a powerful tendency toward trickster-like behaviour, and an ability similar to the malicious Kitsune (the Nogitsune), in which they can manipulate someone from afar, effectively, temporarily, possessing them. A cousin to the Kitsune and far more violent Kumiho, Huli-jing are almost a mid-point between the consistently violent Kumiho, and the often more benevolent, though still troublesome, Kitsune. The widely known Asian fox spirits are huli jing, kumiho and kitsune which comes from Chinese, Korean and Japanese cultures respectively.
