Hi! Love your worldbuilding! Question about Àris the beastmaster. As a patron/the role he represents, what did he do? Did he tame beasts? I'm imagining a hunting hound master, as dogs exist/ are canonically able to have magic. I train hunting dogs and hounds- we are an old hunting family. My dad had a hunting cow once. Running through a forest to keep up with bawling hounds is an experience! As is watching a dog get hot on trail by body language alone.
Back to the point: Was Àris an animal tamer? Or something else? Did the Galakari have non human hunting companions? Love your stuff!
He does!
Áris is the one who hunts with animal companions and also the one who leads the chace once Enías has found their prey.
People who have Áris as their patron are generally good with animals and fast on their feet. They are also either very social people, always in the thick of things, or prefer the company of animals. There is no in between.
Yes, the Galahkari did have non human hunting companions. Most popular are a small breed of coeurl, that are the size of akita dogs. (Credit to the Kingsglaive Discord Server for that idea.) Their lightning is powerful enough to stun, but not enough to kill.
Story goes that Áris was the first human on Galahd who got a coeurl to hunt with him and also the one who started breeding them.
