Shifter

The Shifters of Terrica live primarily at the fringes of society, keeping to themselves to avoid reminding society of just how closely related to lycanthropes they are

Longtooth Shifters

Razorclaw Shifters

Longtooth Shifters
Primarily inhabit the more northern reaches of the continent, many roam the land as nomads, while some others form small close-knit communities of almost entirely shifters, typically on the fringes of civilization.

As most longtooth shifter populations exist without much contact with the outside world, or at least other shifter populations, their traditions may vary wildly. Many, however, seem to follow a naming tradition where the sons, and often the daughters take a first name that's somehow descriptive of them, and the last name of their father or very rarely mother's first name, in the form "Son of X or Daughter of Y" The exact form of their last name is often dependent upon where they were brought up--it may, for instance, be in a different language that is more common in the region or is more traditional for each shifter pack.

Shifters have a closer relationship with nature, and are typically uncomfortable in urban environments; conversely, urban environments are rarely comfortable with having shifters in their midst, given their resemblance to lycanthropes as well as their generally bestial nature. Discriminatory laws based on this incompatibility are said to exist in some regions of the world, but aren't common. Their relationship with nature makes them most comfortable as members of classes with a Primal power source.

Razorclaw Shifters
Hail from the warmer regions of the continent. Usually keep to themselves or simply try to blend in with society as best as they can.
