Become Your Fursona

Weasels have a nomadic lifestyle and tribal social structure, with a number of unique customs influenced by the worship of Yara, their Chaotic Good deity. Domino’s tribe was recently overrun by the Lions.

Weasel Names

Weasels are deeply superstitious regarding names. They believe that names hold immense power, and by knowing a person’s name you can invoke fell magic to curse them. More specifically, agents of a dark god they formerly worshipped and will now refer to only as That One will hunt down the person whose true name is known and do unspeakably awful things to them. As such, they are usually given a public name, something mundane and often based on their appearance or personality traits, and later choose a “spiritual name” for themselves, which for all intents and purposes is their true name. This spiritual name is only given to those the Weasel has absolute trust in.

Given their beliefs, Weasels also do not consider it important to introduce themselves by giving their public name, especially if they’re travelers. Instead, they introduce themselves by giving a goal. Only after they feel they can trust someone will they tell their public name, and it will be many years before they feel safe giving their soul’s name.

Public names include Rindle, Pine Needles, Harlequin, Dust, and Scree. Secret names are difficult to discover, since most of them are in the archaic and hard-to-learn Weasel language and few Weasels will willingly give theirs away to someone who’d readily speak it.
