Pumpkin (Skyrim)

Pumpkin is a named Red Fox found in Southfringe Sanctum. This is the only named Fox in the game and appears to be a pet for the mages here. The animal is held inside a cage in the main chamber of the cave in which a dead chicken is also found. Near the cage there is a bowl with two pieces of roasted meat.

Trivia

 * Possibly a reference to Pumpkin, a dog found in a tent in the last section of Rockmilk Cave in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.
 * In Fallout 3 there is a mole rat named Pumpkin that can be found in a subway tunnel. This Pumpkin is also found in a cage like the other two Pumpkins.
 * It is quite possible that when entering the cave Pumpkin may be loose. Pumpkin may show as hostile, but will not attack. Instead, Pumpkin runs, possibly being killed in the proceeding battles.
