What Is A Veneer? wrote:Veneer are a deer/wolf hybrid that mostly live in the wilds of the forest. They are typically a very gentle creature, but every so often there are ones that are...not so gentle to say the least. However, every so often a human attracts their attention and they can become tamed and domesticated. It has to be something the Veneer wants though, otherwise the connection between the master and beast, also called an imprint, will not be made. This is because the human must be able to see the Veneer's true form, and they cannot do so unless the Veneer drops it's glamour intentionally. The reason this bond does not occur often is because Veneer only imprint on one human their entire lives, so most do not do so unless they find the most perfect human for them, and some never do. These Veneer are often wild for their entire lives, never actually seeing a human, or they are domesticated by cruel humans they do not wish to imprint with.
Over time they have learned to hide their true forms in front of humans. However, they do not actually change forms, they just appear to! Their only true form is that of the deer/wolf hybrid, and the image that they create to help themselves blend in is a mere psychic image that they project to trick the human's brains. It is called a glamour and Veneer can see through other Veneer's glamour once they have matured. This is why young Veneer are heavily protected by the entire pack. (When they are younger, they are not very good at projecting their own image yet, let alone looking though others').
