Luparians

Luparians are a race of Pure in the Celesti Universe. They prodominantly inhabit the desert regions of the north, Nabreus and Damascus, nicknamed the Dog Lands by other countries. They are divided into sub-categories of species; Dog, Wolf and Fox (Vulparians).

General Characteristics
Luparians of all types share similar characteristics, namely in their senses and visible features. Dog/Wolf/Fox tails, ears of all breeds as well as increased agility and heightened sense of smell and hearing are traits Luparians possess. They are usually noble, loyal creatures, but in the past have shown a strong dislike towards the now extinct race of Cat people - the Felisarians.

Divisions
Dogs and Wolves usually get along without any aggression, but hold certain distain and hatred towards Fox Pures, to the point of slaughtering them to near extinction. They even went so far as to disprove any racial connection to the foxes, dubbing them 'Vulparians', so as not to share the Luparian name. However, in recent memory, Foxes are openly accepted, and even hold power within the Dog Lands.

As stated, they were at the throats of the Cat-like race of Pures, and vice versa. The Dog Lands waged wars against the cats, finally driving them to the edge of extinction without mercy.
