Lupus Nomad (3.5e Race)

Lupus Nomad

Personality

Lupus Nomads come in all types of personalities as humans do, but the wilderness calls to the Lupus Nomads expecially, meaning most tend to live out in the wilderness and avoid structured society. Though it is not uncommon for them to decide to live within a society or with other people. Lupus Nomads are wild in nature and their actions tend to reflect that, most being chaotic. Each individual grows in their own way and take on many combined traits of both a Wolf and a Human, creating many unique individuals.
