Background:
Hanequin, The Jackal Slayer, Priest of Darokin
Growing up, Hanequin's family made a meager living raising small livestock for sale on the open market for both, pets and food industry. The greatest hurdle to success and major profit for the family was shrinkage of livestock due to the high population of Jackals that would sneak out of the southwestern forest and foothills into the edge of town, where Hanequin's family/farm resides, and savagely decimate any unprotected stock.
