[edit] Purge of Akodo

Most were slaughtered by Akodo on his quest to exterminate the beasts which lived within what was quickly becoming Rokugan. What were believed to be the last five living Kitsu made peace with Akodo and joined the Lion Clan.^[1]

[edit] Tsuno

It was recently discovered that more Kitsu had survived, however. These Kitsu were traitors from the City of Night who were banished to Toshigoku by their brethren. They had been twisted over the centuries and became the Tsuno.^[2] Their leader, Tsuno Nintai was defeated by the Nezumi and turned back into a Kitsu.^[3]

[edit] Last of the Kitsu

Nintai, a strong ally of the Nezumi following his change, was revered by the Lion Clan. He was a loyal ally of the Nezumi, and while most of the Nezumi were fighting Tomorrow he stood watch over their sleeping bodies. Following the deaths of most of the Nezumi race, Nintai took up residence in a shrine to the memory of Te'tik'kir. Nintai, possibly the very last Kitsu, was killed by Spider Clan forces in 1170. ^{[citation needed]}
