"You should ready yourself, Mistress. I do not trust them".

"Give your pet a peanut and tell him to be quiet, will you?"
"I knew it! We cannot trust this human!"
–Shining Tusk and the Player, spoken to the Forest Shadow

Shining Tusk is an Elephant Demon and guardian to the Forest Shadow. He lived along side his mistress in heaven, protecting her from all enemies.

Role as Guardian[]

When the Forest Shadow was appointed guardian of the Great Southern Forest, the Celestial Bureaucracy assigned Shining Tusk as her protector. Over the centuries he served with the Forest Shadow, Shining Tusk became friends with the fox spirit.

"Shining Tusk is one of the most light-hearted of his kind. Be glad you did not meet him several centuries ago".
"Woe betide any one who called me "surly" back then".
–Forest Shadow and Shining Tusk, spoken to the Player

Originally, Shining Tusk possessed many personality traits similar to other elephant demons. During his time in the Forest Shadow's heaven realm, both the Forest Shadow and her fox servants wore away much of his stern nature.
