Sslipentin Spear-carrier Scrawny Wolf
Amongst the Sslipentin, every adult is expected to carry a spear. And every spear-carrier is expected to use it to gather food, whether by hunting or pillaging.

For the Lizardfolk, the term "Spear-carrier" means adult, killer, hunter, warrior, thief and scavenger all at once. Although not particularly trained in war, these creatures have a killer instinct, tough scaly hides, and strong arms - and no concept of compassion.
These are the runts of the Orc wolf-breeders' litters. While their stronger siblings are trained up to be mounts for Orc Wolfriders and Death Packs, these scraggy are trained as attack-beasts to be used in battle. They cost a small amount of gold per hour, which is paid to their handlers.
Polar Bear Cub Wolfpack Leader
There is no doubt that Polar Bear Cubs look adorable. However, behind the cute exterior is a truly wild, powerful animal with razor sharp claws and a fierce sense of territory. Every once in a while, numerous bands of wolves join together to form larger "Wolf Packs". These large groups of wolves are lead by the rarest of all canines, Wolfpack Leaders. They are the crème de la crème of Alpha Wolves. Risk an encounter with them at your peril...
Alpha Wolf White Wolf
At the top of the Wolf social structure are the Alpha Wolves. They have gotten there through their cunning, muscle, and ferocity. They are to be feared. White Wolves are a breed, originally from the Northern areas, but recently spread, that are the largest species of wolf and therefore most feared.
Grey Wolf Wolfpup
Grey Wolves are medium sized wolves who are experts at using their neutral colors to blend into the forest background, often giving them the element of surprise. Often described as fuzzy or cuddly. These baby wolves are just as fierce as their adult versions, it's just that their teeth are smaller.
Adult Grizzly Enraged Kodiak
Few animals in the natural world are more fearsome than an adult grizzly. One of these animals is fully capable of slaughtering a group of normal men. Adult Black Bears, while not as large as Grizzlies, make up for it in ferocity.
Adolescent Grizzly Bear Cub
Grizzlies who are mid-sized (for Grizzlies) and fully capable of fitting a human sized head in their mouths. Bear Cubs have teeth and can do some damage. But where there are cubs, there might be mothers?
Pack Leader Rabid Hound
These dogs are the ones that are larger, tougher, and smarter than their pack mates. As such, they're the ones you should be most wary of… Be wary of encountering these dogs. Due to the ravages of their disease, the only way to stop them attacking is by killing them.
Wild Dog Adolescent Wild Dog
Feral canines who, in packs, can be dangerous. These immature dogs still have a bite…
