A Byakko (白狐 (ビャッコ) ) is a low- to high-ranked type of Demon. They are servants of Uka-no-Mitama (宇迦之御魂神 (ウカノミタマノカミ)  Uka-no-mitama-no-kami), a deity of food and agriculture.

Overview

Byakko are a type of Demon that possess beasts and co-exist with humans as "divine" servants. They often appear as large white foxes with markings on their foreheads and often some form of clothing, but can come in a variety of shapes and forms.

Byakko appear to be very proud, even willing to turn against those they've been raised with if they sense weakness. However, they can be persuaded to help if offered tributes of rice.
