Official Race Name: Wolf (lunar touched)
Commonly Used Names: Wolf, Dog, Demon, lunar touched, gifted, paradise blessed, blessed
Body Type: Quadruped Canine
Aging: 1 human year = 6 wolf years (considered adult at 3 human years/18 wolf years)
Rank Level needed to play: 5
NOTE: It is also possible for a natural wolf to become a lunar touched ONLY if your rank is lvl 5 or higher
Race Traits:
Race Weaknesses:
Culture: The lunar touched lacks a unique culture, as many of the wolves who fit this category were once natural wolves that received the blessings of paradise, thus they share a similar culture to that of natural wolves. Their pups have the chance of being blessed or natural, and these wolves tend to form small packs rather than large ones, with a family like hierarchy. In many cases, the lunar touched travel alone, as their kind are uncommon and their powers dilute each generation unless they are somehow re-blessed.
Outsiders' view: Few species know of the lunar touched. Human kind is completely oblivious, though some of the more spiritual humans tell stories of wolves with strange powers. Still, they do not label them as 'lunar touched'.
Other wolves have different reactions to the lunar touched. Some will be jealous, thus shun the lunar touched, while others see the lunar touched as closer to paradise, thus deserving of their awe and respect. Some do not believe the lunar touched really exist, and pass them off as stories told to pups.

Race Traits:
- Enhanced Senses - Wolves have stronger senses than mere dogs, and all of their senses are superior to that of a human's. Some individuals have a particularly strong sense, whether it be hearing, sight, smell, touch, or taste.
- Heavy Eaters - Wolves will eat whatever they can, wherever they can. They can eat large amounts quickly and in short amounts of time, and will do so whenever they get the chance. This 'food stocking' allows them to go for up to two weeks when food becomes scarce.
- Human Illusion - Wolves have the ability to make others see them as human beings. Those closer to wolf kind, such as fellow canines and even felines, can see past this illusion. Humans who have been exposed to wolves for long periods (such as all their life) can begin to see through the illusion as well.
- Lunar Hearing - Wolves can hear the whisper of paradise, which in theory, will act at their guide to the gates of paradise. Note that they still require a lunar flower to find the gate.
- Paradise Blessing - These wolves have received or were born with some sort of special ability. The abilities vary upon individual, though include clairvoyance, flower voice, future sight, and other unnatural abilities. Note that these special abilities generally have downsides and abilities dilute through breeding.
Race Weaknesses:
- Lack opposable thumbs - Although they appear to be picking things up with their hands while in disguise, wolves generally are using their muzzles to grip and move objects, thus they are incapable of handling and using certain items such as a bow and arrow.
- Flower Frenzy - Wolves are susceptible to the those with 'flower voice' and 'flower scent'. Flower types that sing to them can cast spells on them that induce sleep and other effects, while the scent of flower types makes a wolf naturally protective towards the flower scent. Wolves are easily influenced by flower power.
- Paradise Pull - Since they have a taste of paradise through their blessing, the Lunar Touched react more strongly to flower voice and scent.
