Frond was a female carbonvix with pale pinkish-brown fur, her eyes were a sea green colour like her mane and the skin between her webbed paws, which was rimmed with apple green. Her paws, tail tip, muzzle and ears were a chocolate colour, and her armour was a dark green. She was taller and slimmer than the average carbonvix.

Personality
Frond was described to be "one of the kindest vixes you would ever meet" and she carefully watched over the vixes in her care.
