Tail

OverviewMedia

Tail is an NPC who appears during Event Trailblaze Continuance chapter A Foxian Tale of the Haunted. He may appear as a visitor with Huohuo on the Astral Express, and appears in Huohuo's Ultimate Tail: Spiritual Domination.

Profile

Tail is the most powerful fragment of the great heliobus Ignamar, and represents the arrogant side of Ignamar. Like most heliobi, Tail is arrogant and is rude to most people he meets, including other heliobi. He frequently insults those around him and says what he thinks without consideration for others' feelings. Despite this, however, he seems to show genuine care for Huohuo and her wellbeing. He is seen frequently encouraging her and reassuring her that she is able at her job, albeit in a harsh manner.

Appearance

Tail appears as a green fireball that resembles the head of a canine, with a tail and no limbs. When Huohuo uses her Ultimate Tail: Spiritual Domination, he will unleash his full power from the seal and transform into the form that resembles a giant canine creature. Tail's true form seems to have limbs of some kind as seen in the artwork for the Light Cone Hey, Over Here.

History

Tail broke free after Ignamar was defeated by Teng Xiao. For many years he refused to possess anybody to the point he was about to turn into embers, until he was picked up by Huohuo. He tried to eat her but was sealed in her tail by Hanya. He has become Huohuo's companion ever since he was sealed.

Character Voice-Overs

Character	Voice-Overs
Hanya	About Tail ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ The technique for sealing a heliobus inside Huohuo's tail, though seldom seen on the Luofu, is not so uncommon on other Xianzhou ships... though I really shouldn't divulge too many details. Added to Team With Huohuo ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ Huohuo, you're here... How is work? Under control...? And Tail... not causing trouble I hope?
Huohuo	First Meeting ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ Huohuo: H—Hello, I'm Huohuo, the newly appointed judge of the Ten-Lords Commission. Um... what else should I mention... Tail: Ahem... Uh, Hello? Don't forget to introduce the most famous heliobus of all. Huohuo: Ah, yes — Tail! This is Tail! Greeting ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ Huohuo: H—Hello! Uh, I mean... Well, I... I guess I'll take my leave now. B—Bye... Tail: You were supposed to say hi, not bye! About Self: Tail ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ Huohuo: My tail was consumed during a heliobus attack — the rest of me barely got away. It's a good job the Ten-Lords Commission sealed the demon in my tail before it had the chance to finish me off... Tail: It's not my fault that Foxians have the most scrumptious tails... However, now that I'm a tail, I've realized all sorts of monsters want to have me for breakfast! Annoyances ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ Huohuo: The owner of The Looking Bronze said I have a knack for attracting evil. I—I have a vague idea why that is... Tail: Apparently, I am that "vague idea". Be that as it may, your tendency to trip over yourself is entirely your own fault. About Xueyi ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ Huohuo: The puppet judge? She really scared me at first... but when Tail threatened her, she didn't bat an eyelid. Madam Xueyi is amazing — I really want to be like her one day... Tail: Amazing!? Let's see if she still has that smirk on her face when I burn the Ten-Lords Commission to the ground! About Tail ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ Huohuo: B—Be more determined? I usually just want to run away... Still, every time I try, Mr. Tail sends me straight back to the enemies' doorstep. sigh Why can't he just leave me be...? Tail: Hmph! Fine by me! If you get swallowed whole, I'll finally be able to break free!
Huohuo	Greeting ▶ ▶File:VO ZH Archive Huohuo 2 (1.5).ogg ▶File:VO JA Archive Huohuo 2 (1.5).ogg ▶File:VO KO Archive Huohuo 2 (1.5).ogg Huohuo: H—Hello! Uh, I mean... Well, I... I guess I'll take my leave now. B—Bye... Tail: You were supposed to say hi, not bye!
Lingsha	About Tail ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ The Luofu really is a bit conservative. If we encountered a heliobus on the Zhuming that was this capable and had no harmful intentions, we would definitely not seal it up.
Sushang	About Huohuo ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ I don't know how exactly, but Huohuo manages to keep that Tail of hers in check, even though she's terrified of heliobi... It proves she's got some serious talent!
Xueyi	About Tail ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ Back then, I tried to dissuade my little sister from her actions. But now, I can see how it provided the Ten-Lords Commission with many opportunities.
Yunli	About Huohuo ▶ ▶ ▶ ▶ That Judge from the Ten-Lords Commission? She doesn't seem like a warrior, but that tail of hers has some fight in it.
