Homebrew Cynocephali Species Details

 

Fifteen days after leaving Sun'dria we reached the Valley of Drakes, whose mouths are like those of Wolves. This tribe is a rabble, professing neither the religion of the Twelve nor any other. They live in hide huts roofed with palms from the seashore, and have abundant banana, areca, and betel trees. Their men are shaped like ourselves, except that their mouths are shaped like those of wolves; this is not the case with their womenfolk, however, who are endowed with surpassing beauty. Their men too go clothed in scales from the drakes of the sky. The women wear dresses of leather,made from the wings of said drake. With them reside a slim number of Half-elves from the Elderlands and Sirecosa, who occupy a separate quarter. The natives do all their trafficking with the merchants on the outskirts of the mountains, and bring them water on aqualottas, because the water is at some distance from the coast and they will not let the merchants go to draw it for themselves, fearing for the merchants because they seemed weak and frail. aqualottas are numerous in their land, but no one may dispose of them except the king , from whom they are bought in exchange for scales of the Drakes.
