The Saitos

The Saito family came to the United States attached to the embassy mission to the United States in 1860 and arrived in Ravenscrest in 1865. It was initially a husband and wife and they made friends with the McCormicks, due to their shared nature as foxes.

As kitsune, a type of fae, they established ties to the local fae community, allowing them to more easily contact their clan back in Japan and get prospective spouses for their children. As ninja, they stuck to their old ways and trained their children in their arts.

The Saito family got involved in a number of businesses in town, such as a grocery and other jobs, many of which they lost in the 1940s when they were taken to an internment camp. The McCormicks used their friendship to justify buying up as much of their property as they could but did not sell it back at the end of the war. This resulted in the McCormicks getting cursed.

The Saitos have bought back a good bit of their old property through proxies and have regained a good deal of their economic strength. Their ties to the local fae community are also strong. Their strength is often discounted by the other families because they do not flaunt it often. While not the economic powerhouse the Lockes are, they are still a force to be recokned with weilding economic power, martial power and magic power all on their own.
