Teibou, the Fox Nun (Patreon)

Recently I got a new magazine about Youkai in Japan, and found a new unknown Youkai girl. So I hope to introduce it as a character for my comic "Anime-Tamae!" world!

Teibou(テイ坊) is a Youkai Fox, slightly related to Yakumo Koizumi (小泉八雲) (or Lafcadio Hearn, well known by his books about Youkai)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lafcadio_Hearn

Chie Koizumi was a mother of Setsu Koizumi (She was a wife of Yakumo).

Someday  Chie helped a wild fox attacked by dog.
After that event, a Buddhist Nun in dark blue clothes visited Chie.
The Nun says she is "Teibou" (I feel it was an odd name for Nun, but anyway the story tells it)

Teibou gave a Koban (old gold coin in Japan) to Chie, in return for Chie saved Teibou's life... yes, Teibou was the fox Chie saved.

The legend is relatively straight one, but I feel a Fox Girl Buddhist Nun who related famous Youkai literary writer is really interesting. So I've drawn her!

Basically Buddhist Nuns have shaved head, but I feel Teibou should have long hair to represent her "fox" characteristic. But I drew also some variations!

I don't decide whether she will appear in the comic itself...
But anyway more Buddhism related Youkai Girls are great! :D

Thank you for your support!
