Beastfolk were created - alongside the [[Werewolf|lycanthropes]], [[Vampire|vampires]], and other shifter-kin - when the [[Age of Wulfgard]] ended. Unlike those other monsters, however, beastfolk entirely lost the ability to shapeshift, and they are permanently stuck in their beast-man state. The vast majority of Shifter races became beastfolk. Some are an even blend of human and animal features, while others, like the [[centaur]], are literally half and half, with the upper body of a man fused to the lower body of a beast. All beastfolk are intelligent and capable of speech, and some have been known to learn the languages of men and elves in order to communicate with them. Like all other intelligent mortal creatures, some beastfolk are born with [[Arcane Magic|the Gift]].
