Fox
Foxes are small canine mammals endemic to every continent but Antarctica. Culturally, they are associated with cunning and wit.
History
During the 9th century, wild foxes roamed the English countryside and even the streets of London.[1] The late 15th century Italian Assassin Gilberto adopted the alias "La Volpe", meaning "the Fox".[2] When he opened a tavern in Rome at the turn of the century, he accordingly named it La Volpe Addormentata ("The Sleeping Fox").[3] In North America, foxes were hunted for their pelts and tails throughout the colonial period. The Templar Shay Cormac mixed pelts from both red foxes and arctic foxes to make a large pistol ammunition pouch[4] while the Kanien'kehá:ka Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton sold fox pelts and tails for money.[5]
Animus mods
In 2020, while reliving the genetic memories of the Viking Eivor Varinsdottir through the Portable Animus HR-8.5, the Assassin Layla Hassan modified the Animus interface to allow for a variety of skins to be applied to her horse:
| Image | Name | Description | Availability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kitsune | This creature is vaguely similar to a fox in form, but is without a doubt a mystical creature from afar. | Reda's Shop or Shinobi Pack |
