Prototype: Rat
The Rat is considered to be a vermin and is found anywhere civilization can be found. Fast breeding, and difficult to catch, these creatures are often kept in line with other predatory species. When domesticated, these creatures can display some intelligence and even show affection to their owners.
Rat 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.
