Races & sub-races

Bearfolk are a proud and enduring branch of the Chimera, towering humanoids with dense fur, heavy frames, and deep, resonant voices. Most stand a head taller than the average human and carry the strength to match it, yet behind their massive build lies a quiet and thoughtful nature. Bearfolk are often the last to speak up and do so in short sentences, not speaking any more words than are necessary.

Their culture prizes food, patience, community, and comfort. To a bearfolk, food shared is a sacred bond. Most live in small family holds scattered through the colder reaches of Northi. Their settlements, half-buried in snow and stone, are renowned for their hospitality.

Despite their imposing nature, bearfolk often display surprising cunning. They are famous, perhaps infamous, for their uncanny ability to blend into society. Through sheer confidence or a kind of cosmic absurdity, a bearfolk in a robe and hat can convince entire villages that they are “definitely not a bear.” Scholars call this phenomenon Bear Shock, and no one has yet figured out how or why it works.

Bearfolk have an uncomplicated and big love for food. To them, a good meal is one of life’s purest pleasures and a sign of prosperity hard-earned through long winters and heavy labor. They’ll eat nearly anything that fills the belly, but they have an undeniable fondness for sweets: honey, candied fruits, and rare confections that melt on the tongue. Many bearfolk adventurers quietly hoard local delicacies from the regions they visit, trading stories and bites of food with the same enthusiasm others reserve for treasure.

Bearfolk adventurers are often wanderers who leave their homes to test their might or seek rare foods from distant lands. Some serve as guardians and caravan escorts, others simply follow their instincts wherever they lead. Their role in parties is usually that of a frontliner, delivering heavy blows with their paws.

“Full belly, calm heart.”

Bullfolk are a sub-race of Chimera, native to the rolling foothills around the northern mountains of Northi. Technically the same sub-race as Cowfolk, the extreme sexual dimorphism between Bullfolk and Cowfolk make them physically and visibly distinct. While Cowfolk possess short and curvy figures, Bullfolk tower over those around them with muscular builds. However, it is only the foolish that believe the hulking stature of Bullfolk is a sign of brutish agility and intelligence, as they are quite nimble and some of the most clever architects. 

Bullfolk culture prizes bonds more than any one thing. Bonds between friends, family, and partners. If a Bullfolk offers you their honest friendship, it is a friendship they will maintain and protect fiercely. If they offer you their partnership, they will never stray. This level of devotion can be off putting to some as it is often devoid of any need or requirement for reciprocation. Sometimes, especially for those used to betrayal in their lives, it feels “too good to be true”. And many don’t get the full extent of their devotion until their Bullfolk friend follows them on a harrowing journey or stands defiantly in front of a monster to protect them. But beware betraying a Bullfolk that has formed that bond with you. Because it is not your friend you will have to worry about, but their family should they ever learn about it. 

Bullfolk are often craftsmen of some kind and it is common for Bullfolk in a community to be the go-to for any construction needs. Even Bullfolk that never take up the professions of hammer, saw, and forge often have hobbies in whittling, weaving, or even painting. The most untrained Bullfolk will still have a knack for the lay of a foundation, the set of a roof, or the plane of a chair. Handmade and personal gifts are common to receive from a Bullfolk during birthdays, holidays, or special occasions.

Bullfolk adventurers are almost always a friend joining someone they care for on a journey, although some simply travel from their homes for the sheer novelty of seeing the rest of the world. They are at home in the frontline, using their size and stature to guard and protect their allies with sheer mass and devastating blows.

And importantly: headbutt a Bullfolk at your own risk.

The Catfolk, a subrace of the Chimera, are the most populous inhabitants of the world, surpassing even Humans in numbers. Predominantly hailing from the nation of Northi, their agile and instinctual nature once allowed them to dominate vast continents through swift and strategic warfare. Today, their presence is found everywhere, thriving from the enchanted Fae forests of Easter to the tranquil Kiraran Islands. This widespread distribution showcases their remarkable adaptability and resilience, enabling them to flourish in diverse environments and integrate seamlessly with various cultures.

Playing a Catfolk means embodying grace, agility, and a keen survival instinct. Their heritage as former rulers and fierce warriors grants them a natural prowess in both combat and leadership, making them ideal for roles that require quick thinking and dexterity. Catfolk are fiercely independent yet deeply communal, valuing both personal achievement and the strength of their kin. Whether navigating the political landscapes of Northi’s cities or exploring uncharted wilds, Catfolk characters bring a dynamic blend of tradition and innovation, resilience and adaptability, to any adventuring party

Centaurs, a proud subrace of the Chimera, predominantly inhabit the expansive great plains of Northi and extend into the rugged Nuren territories of Axias. Renowned for their formidable size and unmatched speed, Centaurs thrive in open landscapes where they can harness their natural agility to navigate the vast expanses effortlessly. Their preference for the untamed wilderness often keeps them apart from bustling city life, though resilient individuals can be found adapting to urban environments despite the challenges their stature presents. Centaurs live in tight-knit tribal villages, valuing strong familial bonds within their specific tribes over a unified racial identity. This tribal allegiance fosters a deep sense of loyalty and reliability, making each Centaur a steadfast ally and a formidable presence on the battlefield.

Historically, Centaurs played a crucial role during the Great Divine War by joining the Susururu Rebellion, where their strength and speed were indispensable in both medical evacuation and logistical support. Their legacy as dependable warriors and medics underscores their reputation for being strong, fast, and reliable. However, a dark chapter in their history—enslavement by the Catfolk as mounts—has left lingering distrust towards the Catfolk, shaping their interactions and alliances in the present day. Playing a Centaur means embodying resilience and independence, drawing upon their tribal heritage to navigate both the challenges of the wild and the complexities of a world still healing from past conflicts. Centaur characters bring a unique blend of physical prowess and unwavering loyalty, making them ideal for roles that require both strength and strategic support within any adventuring party.

Cowfolk are a sub-race of Chimera, native to the rolling foothills around the northern mountains of Northi. Technically the same sub-race as Bullfolk, the extreme sexual dimorphism between Cowfolk and Bullfolk make them physically and visibly distinct. While Bullfolk tower over those around them with muscular builds, Cowfolk possess short and curvy figures. However, it is only the foolish that believe the dainty stature of Cowfolk is a vulnerability, as they are deceptively resilient and strong for their size.

Cowfolk culture prizes bonds more than any one thing. Bonds between friends, family, and partners. If a Cowfolk offers you their honest friendship, it is a friendship they will maintain and protect fiercely. If they offer you their partnership, they will never stray. This level of devotion can be off putting to some as it is often devoid of any need or requirement for reciprocation. Sometimes, especially for those used to betrayal in their lives, it feels “too good to be true”. And many don’t get the full extent of their devotion until their Cowfolk friend follows them on a harrowing journey or stands defiantly in front of a monster to protect them. But beware betraying a Cowfolk that has formed that bond with you. Because it is not your friend you will have to worry about, but their family should they ever learn about it. 

When they settle in one place for long enough, Cowfolk often get incredibly domestic and there has never been an account of an uncomfortable or unwelcoming Cowfolk home. It doesn’t matter if it’s a home, an inn room, or a long term camp site, leave a Cowfolk in one place for long enough and you’ll begin to find trinkets, warm blankets, hand made cushions, and well stocked food supplies building up over time. However, they are rarely tied down to any location and will cheerfully pack everything up or even leave things behind to continue traveling.

Cowfolk adventurers are almost always a friend joining someone they care for on a journey, although some simply travel from their homes for the sheer novelty of seeing the rest of the world. They often take up frontline roles to directly support or protect their friends as a sturdy foundation of any party’s composition.

And most importantly: never, ever ask a Cowfolk for her milk unless you share a very, very close bond with her.

Dogfolk are renowned for their unwavering culture of loyalty and honor, embodying the virtues that make them esteemed allies and steadfast companions within the realm of Lyr. Their deep-seated sense of duty often leads them to trust and support those to whom they have sworn allegiance, even in the face of betrayal. This inherent trustworthiness has, unfortunately, made Dogfolk susceptible to exploitation throughout history. Prior to the reign of King Leo of Northi, the fragmented kingdoms and city-states of the Catfolk frequently abused the Dogfolk’s loyalty, coercing them into servitude and neglecting their rightful honor. King Leo's ascension marked a pivotal shift, as he championed the protection of Dogfolk rights and endeavored to eradicate the oppressive practices that had long plagued them. While Queen Renia has largely upheld King Leo’s reforms, some remnants of the old abuses linger, maintaining a delicate balance of power and respect.

Due to their intense culture of loyalty and honor, Dogfolk are celebrated as the finest bodyguards in all of Lyr, their dedication making them virtually impervious to bribery or betrayal. This steadfastness ensures that they remain reliable protectors, whether guarding noble estates or adventuring parties traversing treacherous landscapes.  Those Dogfolk who do commit betrayal, are properly dealt with by their own—bearing the mark of a torn or cropped ears. Players who choose to embody a Dogfolk character can expect to play roles that emphasize loyalty, protection, and honor, making them ideal for those who wish to portray loyal retainers or powerful guardians.

Harpies are a prideful race of Chimera, originally inhabiting the foothills of Mt. Merlin, where their natural command over the skies first took flight.  Renowed for their aerial prowess, every Harpy child is given a swallow to raise as a pet, carefully studying the birds' unpredictable aerial acrobatics to hone their own flying skills.  This early training instills young Harpies with a fierce pride and confidence in their wings, reinforcing the significance of flight to their cultural identity.  As they mature, they become adept aerial hunters, using their keen perception and swift reflexes to hunt various hard to reach game on the sheer cliffs.

In the lower elevations of their homes, the Harpy clans maintain a steady relationship with the Tengu, who dwell in the colder, snowier peaks of Mt. Merlin.  Both groups gather periodically to train together, testing their skills in friendly competitions and forging bonds through trade.  Because Harpies reside closer to the more accessible areas of Lyr, they are often the more visible face of this winged alliance, facilitating most interactions between the Tengu and the main population.

Players that want to express skyborne freedom will find Harpies to be an ideal choice.

Horse-folk are Kanolith versions of Centaurs. (Placeholder)

Lamia are a subrace of the Chimera, native to the expansive great plains of Northi, though some communities have also established themselves within the dense forests. These graceful beings are characterized by their serpentine lower bodies, which, while imposing, present challenges in mobility within urban settings. To overcome this, many Lamia adventurers master transformative spells that allow them to adopt a more humanoid form, enhancing their versatility and adaptability in urban environments. Lamia society places immense value on family, with large family units sharing expansive homes that serve as both living spaces and communal hubs. This strong emphasis on familial bonds fosters a deep sense of loyalty and cooperation within their tribes, making Lamia individuals steadfast allies and dedicated protectors of their kin.

Historically, the Lamia have forged strong alliances with Centaur tribes, cohabiting in harmonious co-species settlements such as the renowned city of Nuren in Dacquoise, Axia. During the Great Divine War, Lamia phalanxes, in tandem with Centaur flanking tactics, played a pivotal role in stalling Northi's conquest of Nuren, showcasing their exceptional prowess in melee combat. Lamia excel in close-quarters battle, utilizing their powerful tails to grapple and constrict enemies with lethal efficiency. Additionally, their coiling tactics have been employed defensively, allowing them to coil around allies in peril to shield them with their armored scales. Playing a Lamia means embracing a character of formidable strength, strategic combat skills, and unwavering dedication to family and tribe. Their unique blend of melee expertise and defensive adaptability offers players the opportunity to craft characters who are both resilient warriors and compassionate protectors, enriching any adventuring party with their dual heritage of strength and unity.

Lizardfolk are a subspecies of Chimera native to the marshes and wetlands west of Sorthen. Their settlements are built with elegant hydromantic engineering, blending magic and design to rise above the flooded terrain—floating walkways, moisture-shielded libraries, and algae-filtered alchemical workshops are common. Though geographically remote, Lizardfolk settlements are self-sufficient and technologically sophisticated, designed for longevity in a land where the air hums with decay.

They are visually distinct with scaled limbs, slit-pupil eyes, and long muscular tails. This has led them to claim they descend from dragons. Kobolds, who claim the same origin, often reject these assertions outright, calling them fakers, pretenders and other more hostile insults. While there are some disputes regarding their heritage, these conflicts rarely lead to anything more than name calling from both sides.

By nature and culture, Lizardfolk are calm, deliberate, and slow to anger. Their society values stability, precision, and patience. Qualities that serve them well in a landscape where impulsiveness leads quickly to sinking mud or venomous fangs. Leadership is typically granted to those who demonstrate long-term vision rather than charisma, and decisions are often made after exhaustive study and debate. Artisans, scholars, and hydromancers hold great respect in their society, particularly those who contribute to the subtle shaping of their ever-changing environment.

Lizardfolk adventurers are uncommon but unmistakable. Those who leave the swamps often do so with deliberate purpose, seeking knowledge, reclaiming lost relics, or testing themselves against the wider world to affirm their strength and legacy. Unlike the boastful or glory-driven, Lizardfolk adventurers tend to approach danger with methodical caution and a long-term mindset, favoring preparation over bravado. Many act as medics, scouts, or tacticians within mixed parties, relying on their natural resilience, amphibious mobility, and calm under pressure. While some companions find them difficult to read, those who earn a Lizardfolk’s trust often find themselves with an unwavering ally—patient, perceptive, and quietly formidable.

Mothfolk are a rarely seen subspecies of Chimera marked by their gossamer wings, feathery antennae, and luminous red eyes with black sclera. 

Unlike most Chimera, Mothfolk live startlingly brief lives. They mature within a few years and rarely live past forty. As a result, their society is built not on permanence, but on beauty, memory, and motion. Each generation considers itself a brief candle that is meant to burn brightly, not last forever. While they are generally gentle and introspective, their views on mortality make them eerily calm or even reckless in the face of death.

Mothfolk are nomadic, traveling in small groups as they follow seasonal shifts, changes in ambient magic or other signs. They rarely construct permanent dwellings, preferring temporary silk-covered domes or high-hanging cocoons spun between old trees or ruin pillars.

Despite their gentle demeanor, Mothfolk face distinct challenges. Their alien appearance, especially the more bestial Zoalith mothfolk, evokes unease in most people. There are many negative rumors and myths surrounding the mothfolk and thus the elusive mothfolk avoid interacting with others unless absolutely necessary.

Mothfolk adventurers often embrace the path of a frontliner or scout. Their short lives push them to live boldly, though not always recklessly. They approach danger like a moth approaches flame: fully aware of the risk, but compelled nonetheless. Those who party with a mothfolk should restrain their impulses, or they might find themselves caught in the same inferno.

“Better to burn with brilliance for a moment, than fade forgotten in stillness.”

Phoenix Chimera are a rare subrace of Chimera, with only a few families known to exist within Lyr.  Most of these families reside in the solitary heights of Mt. Merlin, where their isolation is not driven by culture or pride, but by a constant threat of danger.  Legends speak of the miraculous healing power held within Phoenix feathers—the ability to cure all sickness, including death—which has made these unfortunate Chimera the prime targets for bounty hunters.  

The pursuit of esoteric medicine pushed the Phoenixfolk into hiding, making them mysterious beings when they do venture away from home. To keep themselves safe from exploitation and to increase their chances of survival, Phoenix Chimera often disguise themselves as other avianfolk Chimera, blending into different communities to avoid detection.

In some of the darker corners of the world, Phoenixfolk have been kidnapped and forced into cages, their plumes and tears harvested for monetary gain.  Taking advantage of their Fiery Rebirth, some of these captured Phoenixfolk are taken to the brink of death repeatedly to have their ashes harvested.

Players who decide to play Phoenixfolk should be prepared to engage in themes of concealment and mystery, where the threat of kidnapping could be around any corner.

Rabbitfolk are a resilient subrace of the Chimera, predominantly hailing from the slums of Northi and Westria. Historically looked down on by the Catfolk, they continue to face prejudice from some older-minded individuals who view them as inferior. Rabbitfolk often have incredibly large families and very deep ties to community and to support themselves, they tend to take on less desirable jobs throughout the city. It is not uncommon for entire businesses to be run by extended families of Rabbitfolk or by joint community ventures. Due to this focus on family and community, Rabbitfolk tend to create very strong bonds with any companions they spend long periods of time with. It is not unheard of for long-time coworkers, school friends, or adventuring companions to suddenly find themselves as “part of the family” and inducted into an expansive extended family. However, despite their industrious nature, persistent social stigma has driven many Rabbitfolk to seek alternative means of livelihood, sometimes turning to crime as a desperate measure to ensure their families' well-being.

At the helm of Mothergreen's infamous Lorenz Mafia is Fiona MacCocairy, a determined Rabbitfolk girl who strives to bring honor to the underworld. Fiona has initiated a battle of optics, working tirelessly to clean up the Mafia and institute strict codes of honor, thereby bringing a semblance of respect and legitimacy to even their criminal trade. Her efforts highlight the tragic reality that many Rabbitfolk's involvement in crime stems from a profound desire to provide for their loved ones at any cost. Playing a Rabbitfolk is ideal for players who wish to embody characters with large, extended families, expansive communities, and explore the underworld and adverse conditions.

Ratfolk are a versatile subrace of the Chimera, seamlessly integrated into all walks of life throughout the vast lands of Lyr. Found all over from the bustling cities like Westria to the expansive plains of Axias, Ratfolk are renowned for their exceptional adaptability and resourcefulness. Their prehensile tails grant them unparalleled dexterity, making them adept laborers and specialists in performing a wide array of odd jobs. Whether working as carpenters in the city, or tracking down dungeons as adventurers, they can be found living their day to day lives with a sense of purpose, taking it one day at a time. Ratfolk are agile experts being incredibly hard to catch. Despite their presence in diverse environments, Ratfolk maintain a strong sense of community through large family units, though they often venture out to pursue individual endeavors, returning periodically to reunite with their kin.

Playing a Ratfolk means embodying a character that excels in versatility and everyday practicality. Ideal for players who enjoy characters skilled in various tasks and adept at handling diverse challenges, Ratfolk bring a unique blend of hardworking efficiency and laid-back charm to any adventuring party. Their ability to perform multiple roles with ease makes them invaluable in both combat and non-combat scenarios, while their relaxed demeanor fosters a harmonious and approachable presence within the group. Whether taking on the role of a diligent craftsman, a cunning scout, or a dependable support character, Ratfolk offer players the opportunity to create relatable and multifaceted personas. For those seeking to portray a character that balances productivity with a relaxed, everyday person feel, Ratfolk are the perfect choice, adding practicality to an adventuring party.

Red Pandas are a solitary subrace of Chimera, renowned for their ability to seamlessly integrate into diverse cultures across the expansive realm of Lyr. Unlike other races that form tight-knit communities, Red Pandas prefer to forge individual paths, often immersing themselves in the societies they inhabit rather than clustering with their kin. Their aloof and relaxed demeanor masks a deep-seated competence, as they approach every task with a lightheartedness that not only enhances their own resilience but also uplifts the morale of those around them. This carefree attitude does not diminish their effectiveness; rather, it complements their exceptional agility and acrobatic prowess, making them elusive and unpredictable in both social interactions and combat scenarios.

Despite their easygoing nature, Red Pandas are inherently cautious and can be easily spooked, a trait that paradoxically transforms them into formidable fighters. Their heightened awareness and instinctual fear responses enable them to navigate and survive even the most perilous situations with remarkable dexterity and strategic finesse. Those who underestimate the Red Panda's seemingly detached attitude often find themselves outmaneuvered and defeated by these slippery warriors. In gameplay, Red Pandas are ideal for players who wish to embody characters that have a "my pace" attitude, utilizing their acrobatic skills and evasive techniques to outsmart opponents. Embracing a Red Panda character offers a unique blend of aloof charm and combat versatility, providing both strategic advantages and a dynamic presence.

Sheepfolk are a sub-race of Chimera, native to the plains and lake coastline of what is now southern Axias, most sheepfolk now live in the plains area within Northi between Axias and Eisenstadt. Born with a natural sensitivity to magic, Sheepfolk have historically built settlements and migrated along major leylines. They were of critical help to sages in mapping and studying these invisible rivers of magical energy and many airship captains today feel it is good luck to have a sheepfolk on board. This deep sensitivity to magic comes from unique spirit circuits linked to their hair follicles, allowing unprecedented detection ability to magical energies and signals. Additionally, this sensitivity (and the natural talent to send magical signals as well) allows a sheepfolk to sense and smooth away the chaotic magical rhythm of physical exhaustion and mental fatigue. It’s said that the best night sleep a person can get is in the arms of or resting on the lap of a sheepfolk.

However, this magical sensitivity made sheepfolk uniquely useful in one very critical field: communications. With their innate ability to sense and send magical signals, they are commonly hired, trained, or conscripted into militaries. Historically, the use of sheepfolk and advancing artifice communication technology allowed Northi to dominate conflicts with accurate maneuver warfare. Only the overwhelming might of Westrian paladins and the scouting and aerial advantages of the demon aerial mages prevented Northi domination of the peninsula in full. This paradigm nearly changed radically during the Four Swords War. Sheepfolk communication specialists began utilizing new jamming artifices. Not only were these specialists key in continuing Northi’s domination of communication range and quality, but they were also able to use these new tools to isolate Sorthen communication signals and adaptively jam them. This removal of critical communication ability combined with the joint strike with Westrian forces and newly implemented aeromancers finally allowed the demons to be pushed back.

A major setback in the conflict drew the attention of sheepfolk after the war’s conclusion. Somehow, someway, the demons had briefly established completely untraceable and secure communications between their command posts in the south and their last general in the field. This limited communication allowed the demons to organize a blocking action at the Battle of Three Passes where General Ar’Golan’s battalion was able to hold back the invasion for weeks, allowing the evacuation of the remaining demon forces to Marlone Bay. This feat, which suddenly failed at the end of the battle, was investigated and the work of Aetherie Lu’Pana was discovered. Since the end of the war, the techniques and technology of the Aetherie has spread like a blaze through the sheepfolk communities, building on and allowing them to improve their own innate abilities to levels they’d never gone before. It is commonly thought among the sheepfolk that the late Aetherie Lu’Pana must have had sheepfolk help or had studied sheepfolk extensively to develop what she had.

Sheepfolk adventurers are often quiet, having grown up where needing to speak up to be heard was unnecessary, and they tend to shy away from those who are loud (both in actual volume and in showing off their magical energy). They will also think it is quite normal for groups to request them to act as a communication hub, even among new parties or strangers. But their comforting embrace and comfortable dreams are only for friends.

Slimefolk are a rare subrace of Chimera, tracing their lineage back to slime creatures that inhabit every corner of Lyr. Despite their gelatinous origins, Slimefolk possess a humanoid form that mirrors their unique personalities, and while this can change over time, it cannot be willingly altered without great strain and training. To better integrate into diverse societies and mitigate the unsettling responses to the nature of their true forms, many Slimefolk's first exposure to magic is a basic glamour spell, allowing them to seamlessly blend in and navigate social landscapes with ease.

Highly independent by nature, Slimefolk typically do not form tight-knit communities with other Slimefolk, largely due to their rarity and solitary tendencies. While they do not possess an inherent sex, Slimefolk have developed the ability to emulate sexual characteristics to facilitate social interactions and relationships. Their exceptional ability to blend into any society means that others often perceive them as members of different, more humanoid races, unaware of their true slimy heritage. This chameleon-like quality makes Slimefolk ideal for players who wish to navigate complex social environments undetected, while also having access to unique techniques that can surprise and outmaneuver others when needed. Embracing a Slimefolk character means valuing independence and adaptability, offering both strategic advantages and a versatile role.

Spiderfolk are a unique and industrious subrace of the Chimera, descended from ground spiders that mutated into a more humanoid direction. Their multiple arms enhance their dexterity, making them exceptional at multitasking and performing a wide array of tasks simultaneously. While they do not naturally use webs beyond utility purposes, a few Spiderfolk have trained to imbue their webs with mana, transforming them into incredibly durable tools for combat and defense.

In the heart of Northi City, Spiderfolk often purchase small, seemingly uninhabitable plots of land and build their homes vertically, creating spider houses that are architectural marvels with furniture often bolted sideways into the walls. Many Spiderfolk are renowned as masterful chefs, such as Master Chef Vinia Lalune, who runs Northi's most luxurious restaurant, "Silk And Kettle." Her culinary creations have earned her widespread acclaim, showcasing the Spiderfolk's exceptional multitasking abilities in the kitchen. Players who wish to embody characters skilled in object interaction and vertical gameplay, will find Spiderfolk to be an ideal choice.

Wolf-folk are a distinguished subrace of Chimera, inhabiting the rugged snowy peaks of Mt. Merlin and extending their presence to the vast expanses of Susururu Forest, where the largest populations thrive. These resilient beings have developed a predatory instinct that enables them to meticulously hone in on and swiftly eliminate their prey, striking decisively when they detect any sign of weakness. Renowned as some of the finest hunters in the realm, Wolf-folk sustain themselves by thriving on nature's bounty, establishing and maintaining small, tightly-knit villages among their own kind. Their exceptional hunting prowess is complemented by their remarkable teamwork; Wolf-folk excel in collaborating with trusted allies, skillfully exploiting any openings their companions create to maximize their effectiveness in both combat and survival scenarios.

The hunting skill of Wolf-folk is highly esteemed, particularly their animal furs, which are considered the best in the realm. These furs are meticulously prepared and sought after by merchants who journey to the remote, forested, and mountainous villages where Wolf-folk reside. The quality and durability of their furs make them invaluable commodities, enhancing the reputation of Wolf-folk artisans across Lyr. Despite their isolated habitats, the Wolf-folk maintain a robust network of trade and interaction with outside merchants, ensuring that their villages remain prosperous and their skills highly regarded. Players that want to play keen hunters who work well with others would enjoy what Wolf-folk have to offer.
