Wolf was one of the Spirits of the Wild who aided the norn in their exodus to the south. Interim years įollowing Jormag's awakening in 1165 AE, the norn tried to defend their lands in the Far Shiverpeaks from Jormag's corruption and destruction, but they were no match for the Ice Dragon. After the humans in the party had communed with the shrine and embraced the aspect of Wolf via Volfen Blessing, they gained the enhanced ability to track the Nornbear by smell and detect his presence with Volfen Bloodlust, which helped Jora locate and slay her corrupted brother to end his rampage. Realizing that the Nornbear would be difficult to track, Sif told the party to seek Wolf's blessing by invoking the Spirit at Wolf's shrine. In order to find the elusive Nornbear who was terrorizing the Far Shiverpeaks, Jora and her southern allies approached the famous Sif Shadowhunter for advice. The Elder Dragon also robbed Svanir's sister, Jora, of her ability to Become the Bear when she rejected the call, although some believed that the Spirits of the Wild had taken the power instead to punish Jora for doing nothing to stop Svanir initially. Through their champion Drakkar, the Ice Dragon whispered promises of power to the norn hunter called Svanir, and turned him into yet another of their champions, the Nornbear. In 1078 AE, the Elder Dragon Jormag began influencing Tyria after millennia of slumber. Although in some cases Raven was believed to personally come to take the life of a norn who was about to die and guide the soul to the Mists,, Wolf was also known to do the same to people who walked in his footsteps. According to old tales, Owl taught Wolf how his hunting would be for naught if his family dined alone, making Wolf heed Owl's wisdom as he returned to his cubs. He is revered as a masculine spirit, and the norn call him their brother, son, father, and uncle when they ask for his blessing.
