Homebrew Wolfkind Species Details

Big, strong, fast, lethal and wise, wolfkin are humanoids with the wolf face and their whole body covered by fur. Their feet and hands are similar to those of the paws of their wolf ancestors, but their hands have evolved to be able to hold items.

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.

Even with their brutal appearances they are a people who cherish the lives of all good creatures and defend them as if they were their own. Their society functions much like the humans, however they only kill another of their kind in ritualistic situations or in self-defense or if their fellow wolfkin has succumbed to evil.
