Canim of Rymura

The Canim nation, which resides far to the west of Rymura's shores, makes no apologies for their views of their neighbors, secure in the belief that theirs is the superior way of life.

The Canim have ambassadors in many major human cities and Dwarven thaigs, but they are far from friendly. Their boisterous, and often repeated, claim that they will eventually invade Rymura's shores has dictated that each ambassador can only have 4 servants at a time. To the best knowledge there are no Canim on Rymura who are not part of an ambassador's envoy. All Canim on Rymura report to Ambassador Targa located in Wilket.

Only trained, or well guarded, officials will meet with the Canim: A wrong remark to a Canim envoy has been known to result in ripped off limbs or outright death. Canim look like Lupine version of Gnolls, but larger and more capable. Mistaking a Canim for a Gnoll is a great way to earn an early death.

Greatly emphasizing personal, family, and clan honor, the Canim's society is split into 3 castes; makers, warriors, and priests. The foremost charge of the warrior and priest caste is to serve the makers. While they have the least power, makers are by far the most numerous.

All Canim share the following racial traits:
