Maw
(MAW)
Maw are a diverse set of creatures, who’s instincts have persevered despite generations of evolution. To some Maw, traditions are a vital part of their essence, whereas some seek to break from the mold and develop new traditions of their own. Even their carnivorous tendencies have become more of a choice, as some are more impassioned to make the conscious decision to eat less meat and commit to omnivorous diets.
