Splinter

He wasn't as big and burly as his ancestors but when battle came to his door he reacted and those actions protected the city. He was sure this was all a test. Now that the Goel had returned to Kodu he was being tested to see if the Red Tree Foxes could once again be that companion. He wasn't going to fail his ancestors. As he worked his way south through the city he came to a bathing pool. He saw his master bathe here after coming through the circle. He looked into the water and saw his reflection regarding him. There were some that thought he was a squirrel. He had reddish-brown fur that lay close to his body a thick but pointy nose black gloved feet and a bushy red tail ending with a white tip. He stood about a foot and a half tall. He was obviously not a squirrel. Yes his ancestors were much more powerful than he was but he would show them his spirit was just as strong. His name was Derthanal the name of a protector.
