	Most Cainites struggle against the hunger of the Beast, but the Feral followers of the Road of the Beast accept their destiny as the greatest hunters in the entire world. They see themselves as kin to the wolf and the lion, predators that live in wild places, stalking their prey. They rely on their instincts and animal cunning ~~t o~~ help them survive. Abandoning civilization, they give in to hunger and savagery, and satiate the Beast in so ding, giving it no need to overwhelm them. This road may be the oldest among Canities, harking back to the first nights, when they were the mightiest hunters in the world. The Ferals certainly think so.

	Ferals leave the trappings of civilization behind and survive by their own laws and those of the wild. Theirs is a simple existence: When they hunger, they hunt; when they tire, they rest; and when they are threatened, they strike swiftly and without mercy. Doing otherwise is to show weakness, and the weak perish so that the strong may survive. Among the followers of the road is a saying: "The Feral wins every battle but one, and in that one is death, true and final. But cruelty is nor more the way of the Beast then mercy. Ferals kill because they must, not for sport or pleasure. They prefer to kill quickly and cleanly, and only when necessary.

	Naturally, few members of the High Clans follow this road that rejects the very social order that guarantees their prestige. Those high-blooded Cainites who do embrace the Feral way are usually outcasts and exiles from the courts of princes and barons. The road is much more popular among the Low Clans, especially the Gangrel, who are most strongly associated with the Road of the Beat in the Cainite mind. Still, members of any clan can follow this road if they are strong enough to survive it.

	~~'''Sobriquet''': Ferals.~~

	'''Initiation''': Many Ferals take up the Road of the Beast on their own, giving in to their animal sides. It is most common among barbarians and rogues who are already outside the laws of civilization. Some Ferals seek out and teach students the ways of the wild before leaqing them to survive on their own, and Feral packs also "adopt" initiates from time to time. Initiation onto the ''Via Bestiae'' is made up of harsh lessons, intended to strip away novices' remaining ties to civilization and harden them to the realities of existence as hunters. Those who fail are culled without mercy, to leave more prey for the worthy.		'''Initiation''': Many Ferals take up the Road of the Beast on their own, giving in to their animal sides.
