Leonin

Origin	Peoples of the New World
Hallmark	Proud lion-folk; strong tribal warriors
Language	Beastspeech

The Leonin are lion-folk of the New World - a proud, strong-willed people who organize into powerful tribes.

Society

Little is yet recorded of the leonin, but their reputation precedes them among their neighbors: a strong leonin tribe is dangerous enough that it can overrun a peaceable caprini village, slaying its elder and bending the confused survivors into loyal warriors. They count among the beastfolk of the New World and speak its shared Beastspeech.
