Wolf Folk

Wolf Folk are the most physically assertive of the Beastfolk. Often seen as fierce and proud, they enjoy testing their strength and skills much like Orcs or Dwarves. Despite their love for combat and challenge, Wolf Folk are not all brute force—many carry a strong sense of camaraderie and playful spirit within their communities.

Wolf Folk society is inherently hierarchical, with natural leaders and loyal followers. This structure is instinctive, shaping how they interact with one another and with outsiders. Some Wolf Folk radiate dominance and expect respect even in casual interactions, while others are more relaxed and easygoing. It’s wise to approach them with care, especially when unsure of an individual’s role.

Genetics and Reproduction

Growth Rate & Stages

• As one of the youngest life span species, Wolf Folk are considered infants between the ages of zero and 5 years, during which time they were completely dependent on their parents for food and care. They gradually pick up mobility and world awareness. They usually start with lighter color fur by their seventh year it will change or stay what color it is.
• The next stage is kids(Puppyies) who learn, play, and grow between the ages of 5 and 14. Although kids are not as dependent on their parents at this point, they are still present to meet the majority of their needs. However, young kids are inquisitive and beginning to understand others and themselves. People have a saying that a young child always hears and retains.
• Between the ages of 15 and 27, their bodies begin to evolve and develop into adults, which is referred to as the teenage years. Their physical body begins to gain figure, height, weight, claws, and muscles. In most situations, this is also where natural magic develops. In most circumstances, they will also begin to establish their identity and become less reliant on their parents.
• From the ages of 27 to 229, they are in their adulthood, their bodies have matured, and they have a good sense of what their natural magic will do. It will continue to develop as they age, but in most cases, it has a set of talents.
• From 230 to roughly 277 years of age, they are elders; their bodies have gradually begun to slow down and become weaker, as have their magical talents if they are not kept up with. Their body does get that much weaker and it keeps them in fighting condition like Orc. Other people regard them as wise because they have lived a lengthy life for a Wolf Folk. This is the Wolf Folk life cycle.
