'Rose Threetail-LaCroix, previously known as Vulpecula Threetail, is a writer and scholar of medieval history who lives in Oregon, U.S.A. She is most commonly known as Threetails.

She is not to be confused with Vulpecula, a UK-based fur.

Vulpecula's fursona is a three-tailed red fox hybrid including some kit fox and bat-eared fox. Starting in 2012, her fursona was changed from male to female to reflect her gender more correctly.

She has one active alternate fursona, Canelle DeLage, a genet.

In 2011, she and Kobi relocated to the West Coast and are now happily settled in Beaverton, Oregon.

Occidentania Cycle[edit]

As of May, 2015, her novel-length output has focused on a metanovel known as the Occcidentania Cycle. While the books have not been released in order for various reasons,[clarify] they follow the rough order listed below.

The Goldenlea[edit]

The Goldenlea is a medieval low-fantasy novel set in the same world as Basecraft Cirrostratus, but 650 years earlier. It is more of a low-fantasy epic than the previous book. It involves the struggle of a duke deposed by scheming courtiers and his bisexual love triangle with a female outlaw and his male captain of the guard. It is the first book in her Occidentania Cycle and introduces many of the memes, settings, and characters seen throughout the story. It was the first book begun, back in the fall of 2003, and was finally released by Furplanet at Further Confusion 2013.

Basecraft Cirrostratus[edit]

Basecraft Cirrostratus is a novella written by Threetails between 2007 and 2009. It was published by Furplanet and released at Anthrocon 2010. It follows the lives of Elor, a professor on the run from a brutal dictator, his former lover Vinz, Vinz's current love interest Laz, and a young ferret named Alrie as they try to survive in the criminal underworld within the cargo holds of the title craft. It is the second book in her Occidentania Cycle and introduces a secondary story arc.

Escape From St. Arned[edit]

Escape from St. Arned, initially given the working title of "Lady of Foxgold" is the sequel to Basecraft Cirrostratus. It picks up just a few months after the first book and deals with the complicated consequences of choices the main characters made in the first book. It was released at RainFurrest 2014.

The Vimana Incident[edit]

The Vimana Incident, which briefly had the working title "Godric of Hereford Lies Dying," is the last of the Occidentania Cycle. It is only loosely connected to the first four books as it takes place entirely in the secondary world. Intended as a tribute to Phihlip K. Dick, it includes some of the most overt Gnostic themes of any of Rose's writing to date. It begins in England an alternate 1939 where the Second World War was averted by a space race, then jumps to an off-world colony in 2606, France in 1153, Postwar England in 1946, and finally Humboldt County, California in 2039. It was released at Furry Fiesta 2015.
