Tears of Magic - Lunarfang Clan

Published: June 15th 2021, 1:07:00 pm

A race of anthropomorphic canines, ranging from the appearance of small chihuahuas to that of mighty gray wolves. They have as many different variants as they have skills and personalities, easily adapting to most environments and tasks. They are so common around the world that it's difficult to not encounter a few of them working anywhere, either as a miner, accountant, mercenary or any other job.

One of the traits common to most Lunarfangs is their need to meet new people and discover new places, refusing to settle down for too long. Once they become young adults, around the age of 15, they start feeling unrest and curiosity to see the world, which they refer as "call of the wild". This impulse often lasts until 30 or 40 years old, when they finally settle down or return home, usually bringing the partner they found during their journeys or marrying someone shortly after.

Lunarfangs are usually very friendly and polite due to their nomad nature, learning since childhood that a gentle smile is often a better greeting than showing their fangs. Their friendliness is the main reason why they are so numerous and diverse, blending with most cultures. Another common trait is their ritual of "moon enlightening", when they share their recent joys and sadness with the full moon, usually in conjunction with howling songs.

Although usually nomads, Lunarfangs have a homeland called Fairia, to the south of the Seven Suns and east of Bullevar. There, their tribes are spread through vast open plains, ruled by several chieftains who choose their own rules for their villages. There is no central leadership in Fairia, but chieftains meet every crescent moon to discuss matters of common interest. Most population of Fairia are children and older adults who fulfilled the "call of the wild".
