A small, cat like alien creature. It has white fur and beady red eyes as well as a cat mouth. It has cat ears with longer parts coming out of them, fading pink at the ends with smaller decorative dots and yellow hoops around them. It has a pattern on its back and a white tail, fluffy and long. Kyuubey’s job is to greet girls on earth from ages 13-18 and make comtracts with them to become magical girls! Since kyuubey is an alien, he does not feel emotions at all. Where he is from, it’s actually a mental disorder. Only magical girls are able to see him. Contracts: When kyuubey makes a contract with a girl, he offers her one wish in exchange. The wish could be anything she desires. Even to be the god of this world. When the girl makes a wish, kyuubey turns her into a magical girl. The girls powers and costumes reflect what she wishes for. Kyuubey isn’t allowed to suggest wishes or force the girl into making the wish. He sticks around the city where he makes contracts since there are lots of other kyuubey to go around earth. And he needs to dispose of grief seeds. Soul gems: when kyuubey makes a contract, he extracts the girls soul from her body and turns it into a soul gem. It is an easier and more convenient way to store a soul instead of keeping it an a fragile body. Soul gems are small egg-shaped gems that can fit into the palm of a person with gold lining on it, like a case. The color of the gem reflects the persons soul, obviously. So, if the girl is reserved, then her gem would be a cool color. If she is bubbly, it would be a warm color. Kyuubey often refrains from talking about them because humans freak out when they find out. No matter how much a magical girl is hurt, as long as their soul gem is intact and within 100 meters, they will live. Actually, when they transform, their gem becomes a part of their costume! Witches: a magical girls duty is to fight witches. Witches hide deep inside labyrinths of their own creation and magical girls have to find these labyrinths with their soul gems and get to the center. Witches do not look like how you think they would. Instead, they are a grotesque creature that move in a strange way, like if someone took out random pieces of a magazine and glued it together. When a witch is defeated, the labyrinth disappears and a grief seed is dropped. Grief seeds: when a magical girl fights for an extended period of time, their soul gem turns cloudy and dark. In order to cleanse it, grief seeds dropped by witches clean them right up by absorbing the cloudiness. Grief seeds are almost like a witches egg, so it becomes dangerous after absorbing the cloudiness. So, kyuubey simply eats it through the design on his back! Grief seeds are very important to magical girls. If their soul gems become too tainted, it may just turn into a grief seed. Then, she will be on a witch. The energy that witches give off helps power the solar system, so kyuubey makes sure that he chooses girls with lots of potential as witches and magical girls. Although, their fate is all the same. Because females on this planet yet to be adults are called girls, then it’s only suitable for magical girls to be called girls, since they are yet to become witches. Of course, kyuubey does not tell the girls this part until they ask or figure it out for themselves.
