Description
A celestial fox is a true wonder indeed. It is believed that when a fox dies in the Feywild, a celestial fox is born in the Outer Planes. It’s easy to mistake a fox from the Feywild for a celestial fox, as their coat patterns and colors are identical. Therefore, claiming to have seen a celestial fox is common but difficult to prove
Celestial foxes are wary of creatures from other planes, especially those on the Material Plane. If attacked or scared they will attempt to teleport out of sight and if that doesn’t work then they will simply escape to another plane of existence, preferably the Feywild. If it truly feels threatened then it will escape to the Outer Planes. Although cautious, they wander through the Material Plane healing injured creatures along their travels. Occasionally acting as a guide to lost travelers in need, the celestial fox finds satisfaction in helping other creatures.
The life span of a celestial fox is unknown but it’s thought they live forever unless killed. One can roughly tell how old a celestial fox is based on the number of tails it possesses. Each tail is gained after a millennium, with nine being the most a celestial fox can have. The death of a celestial fox can cause immense distress to creatures throughout the planes of existence. The impact varies on their connection to each plane and where it was slain. A celestial fox tends to favor one plane of existence over others. The more they impact that plane the deeper their connection to that plane is. For example, healing injured creatures throughout their travels only builds a surface-level connection, while assisting a hero or group of adventurers to slay a great evil allows the fox to build a closer connection to the core of that plane. Most celestial foxes are lawful neutral (all being lawful) but some take the sides of good or evil, the choice stemming from the experiences of their travels
Should a celestial fox choose to accompany you, consider yourself lucky, even favored by gods, for it's truly an event just short of a miracle.
