Dire Wolf

Dire Wolf

Dire Wolves are the prehistoric nightmare version of wolves, which is nearly the same as saying that stadiums are like big couches. Dire Wolves are clever, terrible predators, but also stand nearly twice as tall as their runty modern cousins. These creatures follow the same basic behaviors of regular wolves, but are much more aggressive. Dire wolves often serve giants as hunting companions and vicious guard animals. Some ferocious humanoids and woodsmen use trained dire wolves as mounts. Darker than normal wolves, dire wolves' coats tend toward blacks and deep mottled grays. An adult dire wolf is typically about 9 feet long and weighs roughly 800 pounds.

CombatTactics = Dire wolves attack in packs, seek out flanks, and try to Hamstring their opponents to use Feast of Guts as much as possible. Dire wolves will often fight in pairs against single targets, even ignoring enemies who are attacking their flanks, knowing that if they take down their first target, the others will fall more easily.

In the company of giants and other humanoids, dire wolves are prized for their tracking abilities.
