Description
Some things just don’t change. Even countless millennia into the future there are immutable elements that somehow survived everything the dreadful time could toss at it. Water still flows to the oceans; rain still rains, and dogs are still your most loyal companion. Sure, the ‘dogs’ of the ancient times are gone, extinct in one of the dozen catastrophes that wiped the ancients to give place to new life. And so, while the dogs of yore are gone, the Canidae and some new beings that share similar traits persist to this day. Some were the bioforms brought to Posterra by alien conquerors, left behind, going wild, only to be tamed again by the locals. Others are thaumaturgical entities made to be trusty guardians of the mages, outliving their masters. And then there are just evolved fauna, critters touched by the changes, by the xenotech and magic and even the erratic lick of the Dreadwake. They are many species and forms, but one of the most common across the war-tribes of the Droughts is the Mawhund – a lean, powerfully built quadruped with flexible, long maw filled with razor-sharp teeth. Utterly loyal, obedient, keen and intelligent, this companion is coveted by many warriors of the countless clans, and the breeders of this majestic beasts are in high demand and well respected for knowing the secrets of taming such potent pets.
