Homebrew Fendrol Species Details

Theorized to be a convergent species between kobolds and some sort of canine, Fendrols are diminutive creatures often utilized as servants by drow and beasts of burden by duegar. It's rare to find a Fendrol that hasn't been subjected to some form of servitude at some point in their life. A long history of such has helped to hone and temper them to be masters of survival in harsh environments and situations; it's less about raw strength or toughness, and more about resourcefulness and resilience. Fendrols that aren't currently in service to others tend to be very social, drawing mental fortitude and peace from their friends and allies.
