Wolfin are a hybrid species resulting from pre-apocalyptic genetics experiments sponsored by the state. They possess both wolf and human characteristics, standing upright like humans but covered in fur with elongated snouts and sharp teeth. Their hands and feet are clawed, and they boast heightened senses of smell, hearing, and vision. Additionally, they exhibit remarkable agility and athleticism, enabling them to move swiftly and quietly.
Having a strong pack mentality, Wolfin are fiercely loyal to their own kind. They display high levels of intelligence and adaptability, thriving in diverse environments. With a natural affinity for nature and the wilderness, many Wolfin take on roles such as hunters, trackers, and scouts. Some have even developed psionic abilities due to their unique genetic makeup. However, despite their skills and intellect, Wolfin often face suspicion and fear from humans and other races, prompting them to form their own close-knit communities and avoid larger cities.
