Normally I don't bother with it, but the GM for this game said we had to have a patron deity. He's using the standard Golarion pantheon. I'm not overly familiar with it, so, yeah.
Lots of 3pp material used here, but I don't think it matters much for this.
Race: Kitsune Class: Sorcerer (Kitsune/Kyubi Wildblood)
He was born with a fraternal twin sister; he was a blackfur, she was a whitefur. Blackfurs are seen as having a 'spiritual impurity', so he swiftly became a bit of a pariah, while his 'pure' sister could do no wrong. He was punished for the slightest thing, even things he hadn't done; when something went wrong, he was always the first suspect, while his sister got the lightest of admonishments.
Eventually, he got tired of this and left his hometown in the middle of the night, before he'd undergone his Rite of Passage (just an ordinary ceremony, not a magical one, albeit a very big deal). Not too long after, his sorcerous powers started to not so much blossom as erupt, his first tail splitting into 3 rather than two.
At this point, he suspected he might be in that point one percent of kitsune who become full-fledged kyubi (nine-tailed), which just added to the chip on his shoulder. Realizing he could be capable of some remarkable stuff, he rapidly became rather greedy for power, specifically arcane power. At this point, though, the power is its own goal ... he hasn't decided yet if he wants to use it to perform great deeds to show his townfolk wrong, or gather enough might to burn the while place to the ground.
He seems to be all about magic, and hasn't yet made up his mind whether to use it for good or evil. That sounds like Nethys to me.
True, though his motives for doing 'good' are still selfish. He's basically doing it just for the good publicity/fame rather than altruism.
Neutral is perfectly fine for selfish, but not actively malicious. Nethys is still good for people who are all about magic and don't have any particular inclinations towards true virtue or vice.
Once he figures it out and swings either way? Nethys is still fine as long as the shift is to NG or NE. Nice and versatile.
There is also Daikitsu, who is the kitsune Goddess and the character might still have some fondness for her, but be disillusioned with the whole community and family angle. Or might decide that her guidance is the best path towards becoming a nine-tails.
Fortunately, only clerics have to worry about alignment-step stuff, so yeah, it's looking pretty Nethys-y at this point.
