Homebrew Wolfkind Species Details

The wolfkind are a race that swore to defend their pack at all costs. Few can remember how they came about but the pack elders say that it was during a time of great turmoil in the world that their kind were brought about. The elders tell stories of great battles, with both victories and defeats, and to these stories the younglings listen most eagerly. The more popular of these stories is that the wolfkind descended from the first of wolf-like therianthropes, though not necessarily lycanthropes. It is a bit murky, as they are not related to the true lycans that are associated with the goddess Selune, but likely perhaps a terrestrial spirit or deity.
