Canikin
Similar to the werewolves of lore, the Canikin are a mix of dog and man. Originally from Africa, they moved north after they were declared heretics by the Egyptians, slowly across the arabian peninsula, then eastward across Europe to Britannia - leaving numerous roving tribes in their wake. Some of these tribes came naturally to Christianity, discovering it directly as humans did (though from a distance), while others have come to it through connection and some believe in the same 'traditionalized' style Christianity (as Gnomish scholars call it) that their Ursakin cousins follow. Canikin can be Fighters, Rangers, Druids or Theives.

Canikin are roughly the same shape and build as men, but have yellow, feral eyes. Their hair is almost always brown (though tribal leaders often have black hair) and they wear their hear long with ragged beards (smaller and better kempt that the beards of the ursakin). They have more body hair than usual, but not a prodigious amount.

Canikin have a highly developed sense of smell, and can detect approaching living things from well into the distance (depending on the wind). Like the Ursakin they have hands that are similar to paws, and can not make use of large human weapons (however they are able to use small and medium weapons with ease). They never wear armour heavier than studded leather as they find it slows them down terribly, but otherwise fit into standard human armour and clothing. They have a base speed on land of 17. They are exceptionally dexterious and nible (+2 DEX) but are often rash (-2 WIS).
