  Lore
The dogs grow as they age and as they eat. Eating smaller creatures will keep them fed. Eating something of the same size will contribute to growth. Eating something bigger will quickly lead to growth.
The dogs will occasionally work together to take on bigger or unfamiliar targets and split the meal before parting ways or turning on each other.
Bigger ones have more elemental mastery
Generally, they leave their own species alone.
