Taken by Acacia; the two queens keep track of all kingdom-related affairs together

Primarily derived from potions, as an attack from Austin left her unable to harness much of her spell-derived powers. Spells she can, however, use include conjuring, invisibility, and shapeshifting

A red fox of standard proportions, with a white tail tip, cheeks, and underside. The rest of her fur and her eyes follow the same colors as her "human" form (crimson and aqua, respectively). Even in fox form, she still has the single green potion bottle wrapped around her neck.

Redheart is far beyond withdrawn. While once the confident, headstrong, and unchallenged ruler of the forest, Redheart's traumatic encounter with Austin and the associated death of her lover have left her beyond repair. Even after Acacia's eventual reincarnation, the regret for her carelessness, blind trust in her abilities, and arrogance have left her humbled over the years. While she shares the throne with Acacia, she believes herself unworthy of this power with the harm she's done, and usually leaves it to her wife accordingly. Despite her stoic nature and self-loathing, Redheart is, in fact, a very capable sorceress, alchemist, and ruler, and assures that the kingdom does not fall into the wrong hands again.

Redheart is not entirely human, due to a curse set upon her when she interfered with the forest's initial stream of magic. As a result, she bears the ears, muzzle (up to the base of her nose), and tail of a red fox (same fur color as hair). In addition to this, her hands are covered in dark brown fur up to her forearms, and the same for her legs up to the knee. These animalistic traits place her somewhere between the modern human and traditional animal kingdom, never truly at home in either category.

Redheart is well-educated and has her heart in the right place. Having an affinity for both science and magic, Redheart finds herself well at home in the forest. She is loyal to her cause and true to her word, and will stand her ground to protect those she loves.

Redheart presented herself as arrogant, all-knowing, and the strongest mage the previously-unnamed Acacian Forest would ever see. When faced with opposition, Redheart trusted too strongly in her abilities, leading to catastrophe. Her present day greatest flaws are a lack of confidence, a lack of trust, and a nagging fear of abandonment. While eventually atoned for, Acacia's first death has left Redheart traumatically damaged, and her mind turns towards revenge. While usually level-headed, Redheart has an iron will, and while not unable to be swayed otherwise, it may take some doing to get her to see your standpoint. She can also be very condescending and intentionally intimidating when you get her in the wrong mood.
