**Animal Companion** You earned the service of Mile, a young fox companion that travels with you on your adventures and obeys any simple commands you give it to the best of its abilities. .

## Personal history

### Duskwalker

Ash has always been haunted by the memories his soul has accumulated in previous lives. He has yet to be able to put those pieces together in a cohesive narrative.

### Undertaker

Vulpix has always felt an attachment for the bereaved and mourning. His time in the Khatem Boneyard, Gave him an affinity for the dead and dying. Horrified at the prospect of undeath he has done his best at ensuring those given to his charge would rest in peaceful repose.

### Education

#### Ranger

In service at the Mereve Kirkyard; Ash discovered the oldest graves had been disturbed. Keeping an overnight watch, Vulpix heard a clamor in the yard. He found a fox trying to herd the animated remains of Mereve's founders. Rushing out with a Blunderbuss, Ash blasted them into pieces while the fox held their legs in place. Ash named them Mile.

### A Legacy of Fire

In an effort to put the rest of of Mereve's defiled dead to rest, Mile had tracked a skeleton to a copse of trees. They came upon a Skelton impaled on a tree with a black lance; as they approached closer Ash fell into a pit trap. He woke up in the back of a cart headed for Gagiet Jail, with a red fox following at a cautious distance.
