"A Cat 'o Nine Tails is a special type of whip with nine branches, favoured because it is unlikely to miss and inflicts great damage, much like the skill." - This reference makes no sense to me. Why would an Asian-based game contain a reference to a whip that was actually invented by the British and originally used as a Navy punishment device? Given the Asian-based setting of Factions and the fact multi-tailed beasts are a fairly well-known from Asian mythology by Westerners even (especially nine-tailed ones), I think this reference has no basis and I therefore removed it.

| + | :Er, Fyren, your recent edit made the trivia more incorrect. Kitsune is simply the Japanese word for fox. And while there can be fox-like creatures with multiple tails, they're not the only creatures, perhaps just the most well-known. I'll re-work it in a bit if no one else does before I get around to it. [[User:Capsule Computer|Capcom]] 00:04, 2 February 2007 (CST) |
