The characters used to spell Katagami-sama's name mean "God of Forms." By "forms," the implication is of "martial arts forms." But as it stands, this name "God of Forms" is meant as a slight pun concerning his fox-spirit attributes of shape-shifting.

Katagami-sama (the name) is, in actuality, an acronym for a much longer name. His full name is Kagayakashikute Taiyouno Shiniryuu-Kitsune-Sama. (The "gami" part is an alternative pronunciation for the character that is pronounced here as "shin" meaning "divine" or "god".) In Japanese the full name looks like this: 輝かしくて太陽の神竜狐様. This can be translated as "Glorious Solar Draconic Fox God."

He is an all-purpose being, more than a simple servitor. At this point in time, only one who has a contract with him can call upon him for assistance, and there is a specific format for the contract. This ensures that he will only respond to as many people as he can handle. As he evolves and grows he will be able to take on more contracts. There are no limitations on him except that his power can grow only in direct proportion to his wisdom, and as his wisdom grows, so does his compassion.

Katagami-sama's greatest asset is his growing understanding of hitsuzen. The Kodansha Japanese Desk Dictionary (Second Edition) defines hitsuzen as:

A natural fore-ordained event. A state in which other outcomes are impossible. A result which can only be obtained by a single causality, and other causalities would necessarily create different results.

I will be using this thread to build upon Katagami-sama, proposing experiments, posting results, and offering contracts on his behalf. Please be advised: Everything surrounding Katagami-sama and his operations will be terribly auspicious. I will not speak in common Chaos Magic lingo, but you're absolutely free to think in such terminology. The reason for this is to build a reality around Katagami-sama, free from the trappings of foreign paradigms. This will be the way of things until such a time that Katagami can navigate paradigms as proficiently as a human being (at the very least).

Katagami-sama is not yet ready to be employed as he is still in development. I have purchased a box (seen below) in which I have lined the bottom with ashes from incense. I have also placed six drops of sandalwood oil. The box is kept closed at all times during his development.

Greetings Rin!
Servitor is perhaps too coarse a pigeonhole for this. I have some rather pointed questions which I will reserve until which time you feel the need to talk about it. I wish you insight and more than just luck with this project. AI has always intrigued me though I see nothing 'artificial' about it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap.gif) It should, upon reflection, provide you an interesting vehicle for the Worlds of If.
