He prefers to cause destruction from afar.

## History

### Pre-Roleplay: Before the foxes

Valerian was born to Avens, and became Springtail`s foster-brother at a very young age. He, Springtail and his brother became good friends. At a young age he took interest in rabbit medicine at helping his wounded brothers and sisters. When he became an adult he, Springtail and Arrowhead moved in to the hide. His role in the hide was finding medicine for his siblings and putting up defences around the hide. They lived a happy life there until...

### Pre Roleplay: The foxes

At first he and his siblings were oblivious to the foxes that roamed the moors, until one horrible day while Valerian was out by himself collecting herbs, he was knocked out by a fox and kidnapped. Arrowhead saw this happen, and chased after the fox, but he couldn't stop her In time. Springtail and Arrowhead both presumed him to be dead. Though his stay at the Fox den was short, he was horrified by the things he saw there, like the rabbits being interrogated and brutally killed. This thoroughly traumatised him. One night, the foxes decided to interrogate him as well. Upon realising he was just a loner and could and would not give any information, they decided to eat him after they came back from a raid.

### Chapter two: The strangers

While the foxes were busy trying to kill their rabbit victims, Valerian noticed that the cage he was in had been left open a bit by mistake. He soon escaped through the same tunnel the foxes were using to attack the rabbits, and ignoring the screeches of the terrified rabbits, ran back to the hide to find Arrowhead. Arrowhead was overjoyed to see his brother alive, and together they journeyed to find Springtail.

After ages of traveling, the two brothers came across the warren by the creek. They asked the Chief on Springtail`s whereabouts, but refused to tell them anything. Valerian and Arrowhead kept on asking him, but still Elderberry refused to tell, and Valerian got very frustrated. He leapt at Elderberry, yelling about his sister, and wounded him. The two rabbits fought for a bit, but because Elderberry was very old and hadn`t fought in years, versus a young rabbit who had fought a lot more frequently and had a burning hate for foxes, Valerian won very quickly and decided on killing the old chief so he could take his place, (though Arrowhead did not approve of this) until huckleberry, a loner, pushed him off Elderberry.

After some restraining done by Arrowhead, The rabbits of the warren by the creek held a vote on if Valerian should be Chief. Because of their loyalty to Elderberry, Valerian got no votes. Then Elderberry tried to convince Valerian to join, though the black rabbit`s anger made it pretty clear that he only wanted to be Chief. Arrowhead and his angry brother were than escorted off the warren`s territory by Sky, Snow and Nightshade. Still angry at Elderberry and his warren, Valerian decided if he could not get a rabbit army to fight the Foxes, he might as well just burn them instead. The two brothers sat under a dog rose bush, then Valerian told Arrowhead his plan.

### Chapter Three: The fire

Valerian and Arrowhead spent the day gathering sticks and propping them up at the foxe`s den.
