Alongside the main Casanii tribes live the smaller tribes of ferals. At an early age the young Casanii are sent from their tribe and must prove themselves before they can be accepted back into a tribe. These young Casanii join the feral tribes, many of which have been in existence for countless generations. The tribes are led by the Braves, older ferals who have survived and earned the respect of the young warriors. The Braves will adopt the new jenta and eventually hand over responsibility to them when they rejoin the main tribes. The ferals lead a dangerous life and many do not live to rejoin the adults, but this period of hardship has always ensured that the tribes stay strong from each generation to the next.

The feral packs will often follow the movements of their parent tribe, remaining separate but sometimes join the older warriors in patrols or hunts.

In general, ferals are those fubarnii who chose long ago to live outside the confines of the ″Civilised″ fubarnii clans that make up the Fubarnii Empire. They live in small family groups, travelling in loose tribes that follow the large migrations that travel across the vast plains.
