The Cerberi

Additional Information

Social Structure

Cerberi, much like other canid species, operates in packs. One such example is the noble Fenrir house; although Marquis Seth van Fenrir is the head, he is really only the head for the sake of representing the Fenrirs at the roundtable. Decisions in cerberi clans are made by majority vote. Women and men are generally equal in cerberi tribes.

Domestication

Because the cerberi have begun mixing with races of the mortal plane, most modern cerberi are functionally just tieflings with canid features. Some older cerberi believe that Duke Laurent of the mainland is contributing to the slow eradication of the cerberi.

Facial characteristics

The most identifying feature of most cerberi are their jackal-like heads. Some modern cerberi such as Millie van Fenrir have more humanoid heads. Also, most cerberi tend to have horns. Some cerberi horns are small and protrude from the forehead, but other cerberi horns are incredibly large and elaborate.
