The land of Sylvania is plagued by giant wolves which
emerge in winter from their lairs high in the Worlds
Edge Mountains to destroy entire villages. The men of
the Empire hunt these beasts mercilessly, but this relentless slaughter is
not always enough. Even from beyond the grave, these
awful creatures return to terrorize men. The carcasses
of these wolves are buried in great pits, but the cursed
earth of Sylvania does not allow them to rest. Often,
they burrow their way through the rotting layers of
earth and emerge to hunt once more.
These Undead wolves are the hunting packs of Vampires
and gather around the castles of the Vampire Lords to
follow the Princes of Undeath to war. Dire Wolves have
skull-like heads and rotting black fur. Their eyes glow
with unnatural light and their bodies dissolve into
nothing when they are finally slain.
Dire Wolves may be added to your Vampire Counts army
as a Core choice.
