In such cases, if they’re doing business in monster form, they’ll never lie, and always be truthful, so one can have peace of mind. They can probably be found throughout the world setting up shop, or working as peddlers. Since they bring wealth and prosperity to men and families they set their eyes on, many people treat them as “symbols of economic fortune.”Īdditionally, although they mainly inhabit Zipangu, being merchants, many of them travel outside of Zipangu. They bring wealth to all poor families they buy out, and as wives they end up giving back even more wealth and love to the men who offered their bodies to pay off their debts. If they take over a merchant family, business grows due to their performance. For example, if they take over a territory, it develops into a monster-friendly territory. Their objective is to make it so that they and other human-monster couples can live in happiness. They are monsters, and their husbands are human, so the reason they seek to seize control over human society is to remake it so that it will be easier for them to spend lascivious days together. Though their deeds may seem quite atrocious, it’s not all in the name of self-profit, or for the sake of bringing about the ruin of humanity. The men end up entrusting everything to them on their own. Their mastery of the art of cajolery ensures future obedience, and soon they own not only the man’s wealth, but his heart as well. So great is their appetite for sex that they’re even referred to as “lust incarnate,” and after having sex with them just a single time, the men are already defanged. By seizing capital and social standing in this way, they force men into obedience and claim them for themselves. It’s not uncommon to find men who pay off the debt by offering them their body. They also use atrocious, coercive methods involving the use of smooth talking and illusionary spells to deceive men, and force them into debt. They buy out entire impoverished families at once, seizing not just the man himself, but all related properties, social ranks, etc. They usurp control of human territories and merchant families. When they seize a human man, they use the power of money, smooth talking, and schemes.

Many gyoubu danuki are among the pillars of human society. Using the spell of anthropomorphosis and their financial prowess, they live amongst humans while secretly maneuvering to seize human men as well as control over society itself. At a glance, they seem cheerful and amicable, but their true nature is wily. They’re extremely adept at handling “money” which we can say equals power in human society. Many of them live as merchants or money lenders. Their race is highly intelligent, and has a unique flare for business. It’s so effective that heroes or monsters with only scant knowledge of the magical arts wouldn’t be able to catch on to their true nature. They can change not only their shape, but also their scent and the aura given off by their magical energy into those of humans.

Their “spell of anthropomorphosis” is especially tricky. They can use various spells to deceive people, including spells of transformation, and illusionary spells.
