====== Foxes ======

{{ :creatures:foxes.png?420|Foxes}}

Clever small predators of field, shore, and forest edge, useful as omens of stealth, theft, and hidden trails.

===== In the North =====

Foxes are excellent for settled wilderness: they raid henhouses, follow camps, and survive where humans create scraps. Arctic foxes belong farther north and can make cold-region travel feel distinct.

===== Myth and Folklore =====

Foxes are not major named Norse myth figures, but Scandinavian folklore later gives them a reputation for cleverness and uncanny survival. In the campaign they work well as trickster-adjacent animals without importing a full trickster god role.

===== Campaign Use =====

Use foxes as mundane scouts, familiar options, fey-touched guides, or signs that a camp is leaving too much food exposed.
