The CANIDOR is a domesticated version of the Aakor, a winged, dog-like creature with surprisingly sharp teeth. They are primarily used on the Floating Islands of Pangaria, typically helping Cloudkin Herders on the mountainous isle of Altos, and will have a collar and a nametag. One of the most famous Canidors of recent times was Flapps who worked with the Cloudkin Herder Nemi of Altos. Canidors particularly detest Lightning Serpents, which they will attack on sight, but are friendly with most other creatures, especially people, among whom they will bark happily when excited.

However, sometimes a Canidor becomes corrupted by rogue surges in elemental energy! Their eyes will glow with flashes of lightning while sparks will crackle off their fur. The Canidors will growl and snarl, revealing wickedly sharp teeth, and leap forward and attempt to bite their opponent. If Canidors are encountered, roll a die; on a six the pack of Canidors are corrupted in this manner and their Reaction is Hostile. To restore such Canidors to their domesticated state requires a Calming Potion to placate the Canidors, or some means of draining the corrupted elemental energy!
