A yellow spherical shield will surround Fauna when a Whisper charge is active.
Taking damage while having Sake equipped will disable the effect of Sake despite its tooltip saying that you need to take damage to do so, making the two incompatible.
If Body Pillow is equipped, any hits Fauna takes will first consume any stacks of Whisper before damaging the shield.

Guardian Tree activates with every separate instance of healing; the more sources of healing, the more branches will activate.

Sapling

Level 2

Defeated targets have a 7% chance to drop saplings. A sapling heals 3% and increase Fauna's ATK and SPD by 50% for 15 seconds. After 10 seconds, uncollected saplings will move towards Fauna.

Saplings are not affected by the character's Pickup Range, and must be acquired by directly walking over them.
Picking up multiple Saplings will only refresh the buff's duration, the bonuses do not stack.

Outfits

The following outfits are available for Fauna:

Idle	Run	Description
		Original outfit. Unlocked by default.
		New Year outfit.
		Casual outfit.

Tips

Whisperer is an important skill to maintain Fauna's offensive capability, as its constant healing allows it to activate Guardian Tree frequently. As long as at least a single Whisper charge is active, Guardian Tree will activate once every 2 seconds.
- In the later minutes of a run, when there are likely lots of Saplings available, picking up multiple Saplings at once can allow Fauna to activate Guardian Tree in rapid succession, which can assist in dealing damage against large enemy groups or bosses.
As a character with access to multiple healing options, Fauna is one of the characters who is able to benefit from Injection Type Asacoco while having the ability to counteract its HP drain, making it a good potential source of additional ATK.

Trivia

Nature Shield, Mother Nature, Guardian Tree, Sapling are generally based on Fauna's lore where she is the Keeper of Nature ^[1]
- Mother Nature is based on the headcanon lore where Fauna is treated as Nature itself rather than just its Keeper, a phenomenon she shared with her Council genmates.
- Guardian Tree and Mother Nature effect of spawning a giant tree is likely initially just a general reference to Fauna's nature association. However, it can now be treated as a reference to Fauna's World Tree in the Hololive Minecraft Server. The project started in February of 2023 and as of March 2024 remained incomplete albeit still in active construction. It is currently one of the biggest structures on the server.^[2]
- Sapling name is based on her fanbase the Sapling. According to her lore, the Sapling (fanbase) literally returns to nature by becoming actual (immobile) tree saplings which are collected by Fauna to be planted in the Sapling Forest.
  - Lore wise, Sapling is similar to Ina's The Ancient One, a skill that turns all Hololive fans into fans of specific members.
The Whisperer skill is a reference to Fauna's specialty being her weekly ASMR streams.
