Lupin

The Lupin are a wolf-like race in Final Fantasy XIV. They are native to Othard, or at least Doma, where they served as an integral part of the local population, including having a history of serving as Samurai in service of Doma up until the Imperial invasion.
==Notable members==
* Hakuro Gunji — known by the epithet Hakuro Whitefang, a Ferae Domitae Centurion and Samurai, former servant and friend to Lord Hien.
* Masatsuchi — a Lupin farmer in Namai. Can be challenged to Triple Triad matches.
* Mauto — one of Hakuro Whitefang's subordinates, found in the Doman Enclave during its rebuilding.
* The Wolf Burglar - A noble Lupin thief who prowls the streets of Kugane stealing from the wealthy to provide for the poor and downtrodden. He is in search of a particularly rare and priceless katana.
==Profile==
The average Lupin is a humanoid of comparable height and build to most Hyur, though certain individuals are significantly taller. They have distinct claws, wolf-like tails, and prominent, upright ears. The Lupin were largely and loyally subservient to the local Doman lords, rather than antagonistic or oppressed. When forced to fight, the Lupin seem to prefer arming themselves with spears and bows, with a select few choosing to use swords instead (possibly as a symbol of rank or status).
After the Garlean Empire subjugated Doma, many local Lupin either abandoned their Doman masters and turned to banditry, or were pressed into Imperial service as Ferae Domitae. Some civilian Lupin remain among the village populations, but they seem few and far between.
==Behind the scenes==
Concepts for the Lupin were first seen alongside various head style concepts for the Au Ra.
