Personality

Canim takes much of what he is told literally and does not understand figures of speech or expressions. He is obedient and unambitious, never second guessing orders he receives from the crown or Secretary-General and rarely thinking critically about his tasks. He has an incomprehensible sense of humor and will on occasion burst into hysterics at nonsensical things. Canim rarely talks to other people.

Canim has some combat training, though his skills are below average for a Palace Guard officer. His elfin physiology gives him a very light and quick body. His mind is able to store, process, and organize enormous quantities of information.

He uses this ability to control a hundred-strong pack of highly disciplined dogs that are scattered all over the capital, allowing him access to almost everything that happens on the ground of the city.

While this power is predominantly and most effectively used on canines, he is able to use his ocular magic blended with conventional hypnosis techniques to achieve a form of mind control over human beings, given intense concentration.
