Ferals
The Origin of the ferals dawns with the reign of a single warlock demon who sought to reconquer the world with a race of creatures developed from the most cunning and physically adept of creatures. These became known as the ferals, because their race was indeed birthed from the wild. The few ferals that exist stemmed from canine, ursine, and feline creatures scattered around the world, but the insuing conflict against the warlock sent him to the far reaches of the world and scattered his creatures back to the wilderness. Most of their kind were hunted and eradicated, however some proved to be docile or passive compared to the more feral of their kind. Mainly the canine varieties survived, for their near domestic quality with the reigning races of man helped them become quick allies rather than rabid enemies. Many of the felines have never been able to craft a culture for themselves but they still exist in the wilds. Like the felines, the ursine too vanished into the wilderness only to emerge rarely for curiosity or necessity.
Feral benefits are various, but all are so well adapted to nature that they all have an increased accuracy with attacks.
Canines
Gnolls
Gnoll Feral Name Database
Gnolls are the ferals of the more domestic variety of canines. Their race has developed from the lycanthrope culture they used to be in order to better the homonid races as an ally in culture. Though their dark heritage still remains, Gnolls are more in tune with the working of the grasslands and patrol them often. Before their alliance with the elven kind, Gnolls were hated by their Lycanthrope cousins for fleeing to the homonid races. After ages of strife, the two began a bitter war between their races. After the alliance with the elves, the Gnolls began to finally take back their lands ravaged by their wild cousins. Now the Gnolls have become the most easily recognized feral race in the world as their numbers are no longer considered wild.

They often serve as rangers and trackers in the Andorian militaries because of their natural skills and senses, but are not without skill in martial arts and weaponry.
