The town is about a day's walk north of the Field of Chiefs. It is built upon a 25 foot rise with a commanding view of the southern plain. The Cimmerian Blue Fox lives in dens throughout the area, and there is a large communal warren at the bottom of the plateau's ridge. If you walk to the ridge at dawn or dusk, and look south, you will usually see several blue-black foxes playing and frolicking in the undergrowth and foliage on the plain below. The foxes hunt down toads and insects for their meals. The urro (Cimmerian word for "blue fox") are a frequent sight in the highlands. They are clever, agile, and ferocious when cornered. Your clan found its name during the Separation with the Grath. The warriors from Seven Stones were outnumbered, but they used the terrain to their advantage, employing clever tactics, lead by your grandfather, Fionn. The Grath began to refer to their opponents as "urro" or "Foxmen," because of the way the Seven Stone warriors were winning battles (and probably reminded of the animals due to their density in the area). The Cimmerian Blue Fox is thought to be extremely lucky. Many of the encounters between the Seven Stones clansmen and the Grath resulted in surprising upsets for the Grath. Adopting the Blue Fox as the Seven Stones totem animal seem appropriate. To the trained eye, the blue fox can be a resource as much as it is a legend to the Urrogh Clan. The animals can be used to predict the weather. It's not sorcery! No. It's man completely understanding an important animal. One trained in how to interpret the blue fox can also use the animals to detect threats in the immediate area. Often, the foxes will know of predators, even the "human" variety, long before discovery by a clansman. If you want your character to gain the ability to read the blue foxes, then you must put at least one skill point into a skill called: Knowledge (Cimmerian Blue Fox). This is a trained skill, so without training, the skill follows the usual rules where a maximum of 10 can be rolled on a skill check.</blockquote>
