Legends concur that the masters of the wild are the shou (singular: shou, adjectival: shou). They are an animalistic people awakened from the beasts by Inashayle. Like their animal predecessors, the shou have keen instincts and remarkable deftness. A human nursery rhyme tells "If away from cities you go, you'll find the packs of shou."

Physiology

The most readily identifiable feature about the shou is that they are digitigrade — they walk on their toes like dogs or cats. This makes them powerful sprinters and jumpers. They have tails with limited motion usually less than the length of an arm. They bear large, slightly pointed ears, which face forward and sit higher on the head than a human's. Their noses are leathery and kept moist, and their upper lip has a marked cleft. All shou have soft fur covering parts of their bodies, notably the cheeks, neck, shoulders, hands, feet, and along the sides of the arms. They also have silky hair on their heads which many shou keep chin-length or shorter.

While all shou share these basic features, some bear more features of either a dog or a cat. Most members of a pack tend to look similarly.
