The Camps are semi-nomadic groups where females and young live and survive by hunting and trade. They have helot (slave-caste) to do menial tasks, goblins attached to the camps serves as helots. These Matriarchal camps are generally Neutral in behaviour, but can display the full range of alignments and behaviours.However one practice they do have is that at the age of 7 male whelps are forced out of the camps and must survive on their own in the wilderness. They often trail after the camps but are not permitted to enter them. Male whelps left in the wilderness often form scavenging and raiding mobs which tend to be violent with larger members bullying the smaller ones. These Mobs are the reason the species gets a bad reputation as they wontonly raid more agrarian settlements and are willing mercenaries to Dark Wizards or Chaos Warlords.So if you do ever get to visit a camp you'll find it very settled and functional, but with very few males</blockquote>
