More wolves than you can put on a sweater!

Wolves

Wolves are common in Bostonia. The Bostonian wolf is quick and powerful. Wolves travel in packs and well generally leave humans alone unless provoked or controlled in some way. However, farmsteads on the edge of the wilderness often find their livestock the target of a hungry wolf pack.

Description

The earthen wolf is a minor earth elemental. It looks like a wolf made of branches, mud and leaves as opposed to flesh and muscle. Its favorite mode of attack is to subdue its target with vines before snapping at its exposed throat.

Armor Piercing: The claws of the mountain wolf are said to “see no metal or stone.” Their attacks have Pierce (9) against such armor, cannot be blocked or parried by metal implements.

Blends Into Background: The mountain wolf has a dull gray coat, mottled with brown. In mountainous and hilly terrain, this gives it stealth at a skill level of 14.

Climbing: The claws of the mountain wolf allow them to move on any stone slope as though it were level terrain.

Tough Hide: Mountain wolves have hide that is strong and repels metal. Against metal weapons, use the higher armor values. Against wooden weapons, use the lower armor values.

Description

Mountain wolves are extremely large (the size of a pony), 6-legged, wolves that dwell in the Teeth Mountains to the west of Bostonia. They are quick, strong and can move through any rocky terrain. Though they often stay in their mountainous hunting grounds, small family groups will occasionally wander into the lower lands and plague towns by killing much of the livestock. Their size, strength and incredible staying power make them one of the most feared beasts in all of Bostonia.
