Typical Yardog

Description
The Typical Yardog is the common profile of the brigands of the Yardogs pack, settled in The Junkyard, an open-air dump littered with human remains. Once humans' best friends, the Yardogs turned bitter and violent after the disappearance of the big-bare-butts, wandering in hope of a return that never comes.
In the morning they forge weapons and armor from rusted sheet metal, and in the afternoon they head out in packs to pillage the surrounding area. They move on foot or in noisy, jury-rigged motor carts, and their arrival in the nearby countryside is always noticed and feared.
They rarely attack alone, favoring prepared group raids to capture animals they'll force to work in their place while awaiting ransom.
