Verini usually hunt in packs, and would rather exist peacefully with other intelligent races, but such is not always the case.
Usually, the verini tribe also holds gatherings where all of the members gather to discuss anything they feel is important. Everyone is given a chance to speak, and everyone is free to talk as long as they feel is necessary, so some of these meetings can last for days. However, most verini would look down on a member that could not get his point across within an hour or so. Interrupting a speaking member is considered a horrendous faux pas, an unspoken rule that few break.
The verini are family-oriented, with the parent verini raising their younglings in a structured environment. Most verini younglings are encouraged to begin along a path at an early age, whether it is a magical discipline or the pursuit of another career. Many verini are artistically oriented, and spend much of their time making jewelry, tapestries, and other beautiful works of art. Twice a year, two verini tribes come together to talk about everything that has happened since they last met. They trade goods, have long discussions, and the younger verini look for prospective mates. They listen to wondrous stories, told by the tribe’s storyteller, and join in large efforts to further their arts.

There is a 20% change that any verini encounter will contain from 1–4 verini preservers or clerics. These are of 4th–19th level, with spells equivalent to a human preserver or cleric of similar level.
They live in tribes of 10–50, but larger caves could support tribes of up to 300 members.
