Homebrew Canid Folk Species Details
Canid Folk are shifters that have decided to mostly shun their human features, and decided to fully embrace their love of the wolf, tempered with their own morals. Canid Folk are not werewolves, as they aren't mindless rampaging beasts, and different from shifters as they cannot turn into a human. Due to how most people assume their werewolves, most Canid Folk form societies in the forests and plains outside of the cities. This is because most people who see a Canid Folk mistake them for werewolves and form parties in the attempt to kill them. This causes most Canid Folk tribes to become wary of outsiders.
