Random faction idea; Hounds of the Wolf Mother
a werewolf cult/commune that has gained control over their lycanthropy due to a powerful faunae? (No this is TOTALLY NOT based on the werewolves of dragon age:origins Quite asking!!!)
Deep in the Evangline wilderness their exist a small hidden community of lycanthropes who’s lycanthropy has been magically altered to grant them full control over it. Turning whenever they desire & keeping their sapient mind fully intact. This community being led by a faunae divine, The Wolf Mother. This faunae being an ancient divine born from & having a strong affinity & resemblance to wolves. Her & her pack being rumored and feared by the none afflicted, may have tried to hunt them down but have failed every time.
During the full moon genocide numerous lycanthropes fled into the wilderness to escape the purges, a group of them stumbling on the faunae & pleaded with her for help. The wolf mother took pity on the lycans, offering them her help in exchange for serving her, to which they agreed. Using her divine magic she blessed them, altering their lycanthropy to become controllable. These lycans altered strain also has some other effects that are not seen in other werewolves. They cannot spread their lycanthropy via bite for instance & their werewolf forms have adopted much more lupine traits. Having more natural wolf fur patterns for instance.
For hundreds of years they have served their lupine mistress, helping to guard and upkeep the wilds of her territory. Hunting beast & poachers alike, providing aid to local nymphs, stopping logging or other exploitation of the land. Infiltrating the outside world and assassinating potential threats to their forest home and so on. Many lycanthropes seek her out to join her pack, having to pass a number of test to prove their loyalty & willingness to serve.
FURRIES UNLOCKED
I like this a lot actually! The Wolf Mother is a really cool idea for a divine.
