Realm: Beastlands / Brux / Fox Lord’s Scamper

The Fox Lord is the patron of all foxes throughout the multiverse, including, but to a lesser extent, the foxwomen that have turned to neutrality from evil. In his human form, he appears as an elven man with bushy orange and white hair and beard. He stalks the shadowy woodlands of Brux, serving as both the hunter and the hunted. His servants may hunt the small animals of the forest, but they themselves fall prey to the big cats of the Cat Lord. Neither on the top or the bottom of the food chain, the Fox is ambitious to make his wards more respected around the multiverse. However, this seems to be something of a losing battle for him, as his minions seem more keen to play other animals off against one another.
Many centuries ago, the Fox Lord managed to elude capture after he angered the Dog Lord. Dog then, in his rage, searched all of the Beastlands with his pack, hunting for Fox. Little did he know that the whole time, Fox was following him, confounding his dogs and throwing a little chaos into the hunting party. After a month of searching, the Dog Lord gave up, and Fox then revealed himself to Dog, laughing that he’s fooled him a second time. Of course, this arrogance did not go over well with the Dog Lord, who then chased Fox again to the end of the Beastlands, before cornering him against the waters of a lake in Karasuthra.
Thinking quickly, Fox managed to peel Dog a third time, claiming the two of them were related. “Why,” she said, “should one brother attempt to kill another? It goes against the Nature of the Beastlands.” Confounded for a few moments, Dog did not notice as the Fox slipped into the lake in the dark and managed to swim away to safety. ‘Course, Dog didn’t realise that he’d been tricked and still to this day thinks of Fox as his brother. There is always a price to be paid for cunning.
The realm of the Fox Lord is a tangled area of thickets and brambles, where the foxes can hide from those who would hunt them. Some outsiders call it the Fox Lord’s Scamper—and Fox and the Warden Beasts have replied to that by hunting these know-it-alls down and killing them one by one. They may be just animals, but they’re still prideful and disapproving of those that would mock the Fox Lord.
