Vixen, the Wilderness Guide, is a fiery red-haired Tsol’aa of nature, and the tutor of the Sentinels since the year 224AF. She has primarily been teaching only the Sentinel class skills for over the last century, but with the recent introduction of Houses, and conversion of the Sentinel guild, she has been delving into her tomes to teach the abilities of other classes too.
She has moved several times with the guild, from the Shallam guildhall, to Hashan, then to Gaia’s temple, before taking up residence in the Hanging Gardens in the Sentinel househall, Eleusis.
In the year 271, she fell ill due to residing in the Shrine of Death, in the now closed off temple of Gaia. Over the month she grew worse, experiencing feverish dreams of death and decay of the forests. In her delirium, she started wandering the Western Ithmia, until Titania, Queen of the Dryads found and cared for her.
Titania knew of the cure to help Vixen, and required 4 Sentinels to use the dreaded grove skill of Annihilation to channel their grove energy into their ailing tutor. Oswald, Kolieer, Ishiva, and Aslan all destroyed their groves with the skill, as the other Sentinels fed their energy to them. After the deed was done, the entire guild found their skillset of Groves to be gone.
Vixen was cured however, and shortly after went on a pilgrimage to the Savannah village of Tomacula, to seek out Etarni, the hunter, and his secrets of Woodlore, which they would both share with the Sentinels the following month.
It should be noted, that shortly after Vixen was cured, Titania showed the Sentinels the way into the lost village of Eleusis, hidden deep in the Eastern Ithmia.
