Relationship between Trinket and Vex'ahlia

Vex'ahlia and Trinket became companions when Vex accidentally trusted poachers too much and ended up being captured by them. Using her skills, she managed to escape from the poachers' cage and eliminate two of them. Vex found Trinket's mother, who was badly injured due to the poachers harvesting from her tortured but still-living body. Vex put the bear out of her misery before finding a young Trinket also in the cage. After rescuing the cub, they have since been close friends.

Vex is as protective of Trinket as a mother bear to her cub, often doing her best to keep him out of fights and becoming incredibly upset when the bear is injured or knocked unconscious. In return, Trinket is also very protective of Vex, at one point telling Zahra Hydris (through the spell Speak with Animals) that "[he would] do whatever it takes to protect [his] Vex".
