The Charhound is a small, quick canid known for its high internal body temperatures. A charhound's mouth is hot enough to burn many materials and the creatures are able to exhale flames.
Kiva 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.
Kiva is the average size and body mass for a Charhound, with a balanced build for mobility agility, and power.
Kiva thrives on the hunt, and is confident with taking bold action when pursuing prey or a target. They see no need to hide, taking pride in their natural abilities to bring them success.
