Worg

Worgs are large creatures very similar to wolves. Unlike wolves however, they hunt alone, and rely more on brute force than guile to hunt. In spite of this, they still retain much of the agility and stealth of their smaller brethren, and have been known to terrorize the countryside.

Appearance
Worgs appear like very large, bulky wolves, and their pelt usually ranges from dark grey to black. Standing on all fours they are as tall as a laochran, though rumors abound that some grow to the size of trees.

Behavior
Worgs are nocturnal, and hunt alone during nighttime. That said, a starving worg might brave to hunt during the day as well. Due to their size, most worgs prefer hunting larger prey, often other, smaller predators. Highly conflicting tales are told of worgs - some say they hunt men the same as beasts, others say they stray from the paths of man entirely.

Habitat
Worgs usually live in smaller caves or outcroppings, where they sleep during the day. Generally, they are only found deep in the wilderness. Most worgs prefer deep forests, although those further north are often found in more open pine areas.
