"I don't want to set the world on fire..."
Far more intelligent than most cubs and capable of doing anything he sets his mind to, Vulpes was taken in by Entreri and is now one of the few lions the old king really seems proud of. Entreri holds him to high standards and Vulpes has not failed him yet, but the king is not the only one impressed by the young lion. Rider keeps Vulpes close to her and he has managed to learn a great deal of her spells. Careful not to make enemies yet but fiercely loyal to his pride, he has also gotten close to Joshua and stays on the good side of Arcade, the only lion likely to succeed Entreri, although the older male distrusts him. The hide he wears belonged to one of Entreri's last opponents. The old and dying king gave it to Vulpes as a gift as a show of gratitude, one of very few.
After many years as the pride's best hunter (Lvl 40) Vulpes found himself separated from the hunting party and facing a trio of giraffes. Already exhausted after bringing down one adult giraffe, he was no match for three. The remains the other lionesses found had been trampled so badly that they could barely be recognized, but they brought them to Lucius anyway, having no other place to turn.
Lucius, to their amazement, passed the great lion's spirit into the body of Vulpes' newborn cub. Vulpes, visibly disoriented from the change, is expected to rise to even greater heights, given time. Death has softened the fierce lion's personality, he's developed an unexpectedly romantic streak. Many of the pride believe that Lucius's spell did not work due to this dramatic change, but little do they know, Vulpes is as cunning as ever, despite his softer side.
Once again, the old hunter's body grew too old to hunt and his spirit was passed to one of his children. When his final litter produced only one disappointing cub, the vessel was chosen from his previous litter, crowning a strong cub determined to prove himself as the next great hunter. With the spirit passed down, Missy has told the pride of the old hunter's death although the aging body has not yet died. It will soon, and the new vessel will take his place on the hunting team. Vulpes' spirit has merged much more easily with this new host and his more brutal nature has returned, rendering him another valuable ally to Missy.
With Missy's death well before the great hunter reached the end of his latest life, Sans worked in secret to carry Vulpes' spirit into another of his cubs, a child of his last litter, as is tradition. He chose a kind cub and hoped that the old hunter's skill and knowledge can be shaped to aid the pride in a more gentle way. Sans was wrong, however, and Vulpes had one last litter after the birth of his new vessel. The soulless body gave birth to several more cubs, including a mutant birth. Jesse, the mutated cub, looks to his elder sibling that now carries Vulpes' spirit with envy. Vulpes cares nothing for his folded-eared child and sibling.

You were enjoying the soft sound of birds. Then, ***Vulpes Inculta*** proudly sauntered up, farted, and then died laughing. They think it's far funnier than you do. Cubs.
You were having some trouble getting into a carcass with a tough hide, so you invited ***Vulpes Inculta*** to share with you. Sure enough, she proudly tore the decaying beast to shreds. You wonder if her claws are permanently bloodstained.
