Rune Factory 5 Tame Nine Tailed Fox

Okay, let's talk about one of the coolest things you can do in Rune Factory 5: befriending a magnificent Nine-Tailed Fox! Forget normal pets, we're going for mythical creatures here. I mean, who wouldn't want a giant, fluffy fox following them around?

First things first, you'll need to actually find one. These aren't exactly roaming around town. They hang out in the Yumina Lake area.

Operation: Befriend the Fluff

Now, the key to any good friendship, even with a Nine-Tailed Fox, is bribery. I mean, *gifts*. Everyone loves presents!

The All-Important Gift

These foxes have surprisingly refined tastes. Forget giving them random weeds you picked up in your garden. We need to appeal to their inner foodie.

Their absolute favorite? Fried Tofu. Yes, that simple, unassuming block of soy goodness is the key to their heart. Imagine, all that power fueled by delicious fried tofu.

I know, I know, it sounds ridiculous. But trust me, it works like a charm! You can whip up Fried Tofu using a frying pan and the right ingredients.

The Art of the Approach

Don't just run up and shove Fried Tofu in their face. Remember, these are powerful creatures, not stray cats. Approach slowly and respectfully.

Start by tossing the Fried Tofu near them. You'll see a little music note pop up if they like it. That's your cue that you're on the right track!

Keep giving them Fried Tofu each day. It might take a few tries, but eventually, you'll see a heart pop up! Congratulations, you're making progress!

Persistence is key. Don't get discouraged if they seem uninterested at first. Think of it like winning over a particularly stubborn houseplant.

The Taming Moment

Once you've got a good relationship going (those hearts are your best friends), you can try to tame them. This is where things get exciting!

Make sure you have an empty slot in your party. Then, approach the Nine-Tailed Fox and... cross your fingers! You'll get a prompt to ask them to join you.

If you've given them enough love (and Fried Tofu), they'll happily agree! Get ready to have a giant, fluffy friend for life!

Benefits of a Fox Friend

So, why go to all this trouble? Because having a Nine-Tailed Fox in your party is awesome, obviously! They're strong fighters, and they look incredibly cool.

Plus, imagine riding around on a giant fox! It's way more impressive than a horse. You'll be the envy of every farmer in town.

And let's be honest, who wouldn't want a giant, fluffy companion? It's like having a walking, talking (well, not really talking) teddy bear with magical powers.

Think of the possibilities! You could have matching outfits! You could braid their tails! Okay, maybe not the braiding, but still!

So there you have it! The secret to befriending your very own Nine-Tailed Fox in Rune Factory 5. Go forth, brave farmer, and make some fluffy friends!

Just remember the Fried Tofu. It's the key to everything.
