Dogian (Species)

Dogians (canidforms, canids, or canoforms) are physiologically similar to kits and catians (including mating restrictions), but take on dog qualities. They fall into two factions, the curs, the more feral sorts who live outside the boundaries of their federation, and the tames, who live in the federation of Dogia itself. These factions see themselves almost as different species, and it is very shameful to have a child who switches alignment between the two. At times the only thing that prevents major civil war between the two factions is their dependence on the coalition for mates, and therefore the threat of withholding mates holds large amounts of political power over Dogian society. Dogians are also found elsewhere, but the largest Dogian concentration outside of the areas they live in is in Gath-Sako where they are brought for their possession of aggressive genes when needed and removed back to their homes as necessary.

Feral dogians tend to be of a more wolf like appearance with sharp standing triangular ears whilst their tame counterparts tend to be vastly more physically varied. As such, at a glance the two groups are easily distinguishable in the broad swathes.
