Patrollers
The Patrollers are dog-like beings that wander the haunted lands of this realm. They ensure that the souls under penance within the realm are not allowed to rest for too long in one place.
Basic Information
Anatomy
Overall, Patrollers are dog shaped. They have four legs that touch the ground. They have at least 1 tail that trails off the spine. The head is much like a wolf's for the base form, with less pointed ears and muzzle. The torso is much like a wolf's as well, being shorter than others in Earth's Family Canidae.
Biological Traits
There is very little difference between what is considered male and female for Patrollers.
Genetics and Reproduction
The Warden in charge of the realm determines how many Patrollers exist at a given time, forming more out of the souls that either die from or give in to the torment of the realm.
Dietary Needs and Habits
Patrollers only consume meat, usually human or other monsters, depending on what the Warden needs. Patrollers will pull corpses together to store in dark caverns, setting out two or three of each variety to guard it. New Patrollers can get access to easy food to establish them through this practice.
Additional Information
Uses, Products & Exploitation
The Patrolers can be used as a clock by the souls trapped within the realm. The creatures tend to appear four days after a group as settled into an area.
Average Intelligence
Patrolers are intelligent enough to understand human speech and body language, though they tend to lean more on their instincts and the Warden's commands.
Perception and Sensory Capabilities
The general abilities of a Patroller is usually the same as a dog. Additional sensory organs vary from Era to Era and at times, from area to area.
Civilization and Culture
History
The Warden of the 3rd Age began changing the landscape of Silans Mon roughly 30,000 years ago. This was around the time that he noticed the Last Ice Age on Pantheon Earth and noticed a new being associated with short-eared humans. These new creatures were wolf-like canids and the fear associated with them was too good for the Warden to ignore. He asked for four souls of these new creatures and from them he created the first Patrollers.
