Cythraul are quadrupedal, canine creatures with long bushy tails, tapered ears, and a pointed muzzle containing sharp teeth. They have impressive jaw strength and an enhanced sense of smell. Natural apex predators, they are larger and more intelligent than the average Wolf. They are distant cousins and nearly identical to the Arx Wolf, but have lore that ties them to Clan Arcona.
Xiffan is wild by nature, but has had its behavior modified to accept the presence of humanoids by an intervention. It is trained against its wild instincts to accept humanoids. As creature handling goes up, a member can better empathize, train, and manage this creature's behavior. Untrained (+0), this creature will do whatever it wants and one would be helpless to understand why, with its natural disposition taking over. As creature handling skills improve, a member can understand, care for, and better influence this creature with full control achieved with mastery (+5) of creature handling.
Xiffan has typical coloring and physical appearance for a Cythraul.
Xiffan is the average size and body mass for a Cythraul, with a balanced build for mobility agility, and power.
Xiffan has a natural, instinctive drive to take the lead when around other creatures, especially when among fellow Cythraul’s. They are usually the first to take point and will often look to assert their dominance by means of aggressive actions or by vocalizing with their respective method of communication (howling, hissing, roaring, etc.).
