Likantrof

The likantrof is a canine humanoid native to many of Ximizhlum’s biomes. Being covered in fur and walking on two canine legs and two humanoid arms, the likantrof is very similiar in build to the lalrachekh, though there are a few key differences. Likantrofs are smaller, live in packs, and do not make any unusual noises other than howls and growls.

Most of the time, likantrofs can be found stalking prey in groups of other likantrofs, though it’s not too uncommon for them to mix with wolf packs as well. The humanoid arms give it the power to climb trees, something wolves can not do, and so the two often cooperate.

Despite their humanoid appearance, they lack any sort of advanced intelligence. They are only vaguely smarter than wolves, but the difference is negligible.

Male likantrofs have tufts of hair growing on their arms and legs. These are solely for decoration in order to attract mates. The fluffier the tufts are, the more likely the likantrof is to get laid. Female likantrofs do not have any such tufts.

For ages, there’s been a rumour that a likantrof’s bite will transform you into a likantrof as well. Since there have been no actual confirmed cases of such, it remains a rumour.
