Hondu: Difference between revisions

The hondu are canine humanoids who originally came from the dark boreal forests of the northern lands, but have since spread to all known corners of the continent. The hondu possess unmatched endurance and speed for any race their size. They are able to track and pursue prey for days on end, and equally capable of hauling their kills back to their family groups. While generally known for their loyalty and bravery, hondu are as diverse in personality as they are in appearance. Even members of the same family might have drastically different colorations in fur or length of snout.

Hondu culture tends to exemplify the sanctity of life and strive to uphold the order of the natural world. In this sense, nature is deified as much as any god and over-hunting, wastes of food, and relishing in excess are heavily discouraged. Where hondu cities are built, outsiders might find a surprising marriage of nature and civilization in food, architecture, and art.
