Gaeriq

Gaeriq
The Gaeriq are a humanoid species from the planet Herisia. They are expert trackers and hunters, though some prefer to be more crafty and are smugglers or weapons dealers. They live for about 80-90 years.

Physical Description
Gaeriq appear to look like a wolf on two legs, except they are far more hunched over with tiny red eyes, hands instead of paws and no tail. Their backs are covered in thick hair, and their skin is pink, but the hair could be white, brown, black or grey.

History
The Gaeriq evolved from a species of wolves on their homeworld, and then became much more organised, building towns to live in, with an economy and laws. They lived in peace, hunting prey for food and materials.

Sometime before the First War, they joined the Rage, serving them faithfully until they were betrayed and left for dead by the Rage, who were retreating from the Peace and ISA. Believing the Rage to still be their allies, many Gaeriq were slaughtered upon the ISA's arrival as they attacked.

Once they realised the truth, they apologised at once, joining the ISA and providing them with everything they could on the Rage. In return, only a fraction of them were enslaved, the others becoming worthy warriors who helped the effort against the Rage.
