Wulfganger

## Wulfgangr

* Females tend to be up to a foot taller than males

### Pelt:

Thick and coarse with a few softer areas where the fur lengthens. It is bred to be hard for other animals to get a grip on, and sheds easily if pulled in the wrong direction; while the shorter fur's coarseness simultaneously makes them easy to ride and difficult to fall off of as well as unpleasant to bite.

### Head:

The head of a wulfganger is both large and long, providing ample room and leverage to their powerful jaw muscles. The bridge of the nose is arched, adding double the average room for scent to be drawn in and processed. This gives them a unique 'recurved' profile.

### Eyes:

The eyes are almond shaped and bright, large and attuned to changing light much like a cat's they can adjust instantly between light and dark spaces without visual imparement.

### Ears:

thin and long the ears are often descried as daggers, they are more mobile than average canines, the length allowing them to pinpoint sounds with accuracy even when tucked.

### Feet/hands:

The paws are large for stability, and tipped with stout claws, the most notable feature of wulfgangr however is the raptoresque dewclaws on both hind paws; and smaller more flexible ones on the forepaws. These possess a neurotoxin that the wulfgangr can use to deadly effect; like a cobra age teaches the Mollossers to control injection.

### Tail:

The tail is large and thick, almost reptillian, though used primarily used for counterbalance\* the tail is also semi prehensile, helping them turn and twist when running, and assisting them in navigating in forested areas.*\*Wulfgangr can stand to batter foes or prey with their forepaws; and even sprint for short bursts*

**Overview

A species of Mollosser developed over many thousands of years by the Lochesh wulfgangr are currently some of the only "molls" still bred as intended on their homeworld; with what was once dozens of breeds reduced to miniatures as a whole. Secreted in the dense Dacan forests however the true Mollossers still thrive, and are still trained for combat and service as they have been for eons.

**Breeding

Wulfgangr are matriarchal, and the females possess a 'psudo-penis' which will stop males breeding them unless the female has been thoroughly impressed with his courting attempts. This tends to mean that the breeding of Molls is a long affair; with males bringing the females prey, proving displays of physical prowess, and 'singing' for their would-be mates.

It is not uncommon for a female to choose the same male consistently ear after year, but some will choose different mates consecutively or even randomly.
