Lore

Catlings are the distant descendants of the Cathnakari and most have inherited their ancestors sadistic and merciless natures. They tend to be viewed as little better than human slave fodder by most of their ancestors but a few are used as secret agents in the material plane, where the existence of their masters is not well known.
