Description Natural born weredogs bear a striking resemblance to their animalsake in their normal form. Affected weredogs look like they did before they were enchanted/blessed/etc.
Procreation Follows the mother between most pseudohumans. Outside classification, it varies. Can also be created via supernatural means.
Magic One in a million have soul magic. One in a million have heart magic. Mind magic is possible. Body magic is very effective. Void is possible. Faith is not uncommon.
Special Powers Weredogs can shift form between "human," dog, and mixed forms. Each form has advantages: "human" form blends with society, dog form has all the advantages the animal has (powerful sense of smell, loud bark, keen ears), and the mixed form combines the two.

Weredogs have the ability to turn targets into animals against their will, usually prey animals. They can control other dogs, and they can cause madness in people with their bite such that the person thinks they are a weredog even if they are not.
Weaknesses Aligned powers can harm them more than unaligned.
Culture Weredogs come in many varieties.

Some are dogs that become men. These weredogs live in packs and act as animals.

Some are men that become dogs. These are generally strange warrior folk who live as raiders on the edge of civilizations.

Some are people who only think that they are weredogs. These act more like lunatic werewolves than weredogs, though.
