I mentioned in another thread that I really want a good houndfolk species to use, but I'm posting here to not derail that thread. Anyone have any 3rd party suggestions that I can actually review before buying? As for what I don't want, I'm not looking for a species that is tied to wolves specifically, or that has inherent magic like the Humblefolk species, or that is a shapeshifter. The Shifter species design is close to what I want, but the shifting mechanics are temporary and take up too much design space, so reskinning it doesn't work. I also want all canine themes.
To add value to my post, here is something I put together that is pretty basic, focusing on skills and Expertise, and some traditional canine themes.
Houndfolk (Hunderkin)
Size: S or M
Speed: 35 feet
Darkvision: 60 feet
Keenest Senses: Proficiency in Insight and Perception
Hardest Worker: Expertise in one skill that you are proficient in.
Houndfolk Lineage (Something to "choose from"):
