History
- genetically engineered and raised originally in the desert, they migrated to the mountains during a particularly harsh summer. The group stayed up there for a great deal of time, learning to climb tricky inclines, finding footholds where none were apparent. Food was tricky and scarce, but that was nothing they weren't used to. A few returned to their original homeland, but it is far more common to find these hounds up in the higher ranges of mountains
