They can turn others into these creatures if they so desire, and hunt in packs. Once one has joined them, they are forever part of the pack.
Origin
A long time ago, during the creating of the four deities, a group of hunter wandered the realm killing for sport and pleasure.The group was of four men, who hunted in what remained of the elder woods of the realm. Their particular game to hunt was wild canines, consisting of wolves, who wandered aimlessly within their pack.This group of huntsman were keen on living off the land, being experienced bowmen and expert trackers. The group planned a hunting trip of merely a few days, hoping to come home with pelts beyond the counting. Only a day into the trip the group begin to loose their barrings. With the thickness of the forest, hiding the stars, the group had to reside on the moss of trees to guide them home. They followed it aimlessly, soon discovering it lead them in circles. They began to panic, wandering deeper into the elder woods.
As they continued their delve deeper into the woods, they came upon a small cave. As night fell, the small fire cast shadows on the walls. Soon they began to hear rustling on the near by brush, and a wild howl. As they looked towards the cave entrance, a large wolf growled down towards them, let outing a howl as a pack of small canines appeared behind the creature. It let out another unnatural howl as the men began to transform, their noses becoming snouts and their nails becoming claws. Soon their bodies were covered in matted hair, as their teeth protruded from their gums, sharping into canine fangs. Thousands of smells flooded their nostrils, as their eyes begin to turn a golden color. Their iris began to widen, increasing their sight.
After their transformation, the large wolf revealed its ethereal form to be the Mani, Morea Demigod of the Wild and Prince of the Wolves and Hounds. Morea cast this curse upon the men, for their actions against the wolves of nature. Morea tasked the new creatures, the task of protecting the woodlands. They were allowed to return to their descendant phase. They were required still to sleep, hunt, and protect beside their new brethren. As they ventured out of the clearing near the cave, they began killing other men for creeping onto their land. These men bestowed the name feral, upon the creatures. Due to their blood lust, and killing nature. As the creatures wandered out of the clearing more, they craved to turn others. This was another gift bestowed by Morea, the gift to turn others.
