Nemesis – The Law.  

The Wolf is a fierce outlaw who as Oric Steelgate ravaged the Evari highways wreaking havoc on trade caravans and military supply convoys. Under Dreger Longtails he wore a cloak made of the hair of every woman and girl he butchered while raiding the coasts of Dodicerous, Dophia, and the Lands of Maria. He was recruited by the Shogunate to kill off supporters of an uprising. He fought as Lieren Benneng against the rising tides of the Vigint as they swept across Wei, he broke the ride of the Wild Hunt as Deric Lionsmane, cut a deadly path through the coming Axandrians as Okami Yajuu as the age started to come to an end, and as The Slayer wreaked havoc to the Vampire kingdoms of Talis’Vrok.  

The Wolf’s Ring of Power grants the wearer the power to mute all of his emotions burying any sense of guilt, regret, and inner turmoil. The Wolf has reincarnated hundreds of times and has become a symbol of fear and hope across the plane. Vicious murderer and outlaw and dedicated rebel he fights against Order however he can. He has faced the Fae Huntmaster Megroth and broke his ride, caused the near destruction of Evangalis, sowed death and delayed the Vigint advance for years into Wei. He repelled the Bull God from full materializing on the mortal coil and killed many of his Kinslayer Sons.  

The Wolf is marked by having a scar over his left eye, a tattoo of a starburst over his right, thick hair that refuses to be cut, and a large beard. He has a rough wild appearance and highly pronounced canines. He gains his immortal memories when he takes his first life.
