The White Loth-wolf was a mysterious Force-sensitive white Loth-wolf from the planet Lothal. It led a pack of loth-wolves and was able to travel through time and space. The white loth-wolf and his pack befriended the Lothalite Jedi Padawan Danny the Cat and his Spectres rebel cell during the early rebellion against the Galactic Empire. The white loth-wolf and his pack contributed to the Spectres and Lothal resistance group's successful efforts to drive the Empire from Lothal in 2003.
==Biography==
===Crossing paths===
The white loth-wolf was the leader of a pack of loth-wolves that roam the grassy plains of the planet Lothal during the Imperial Era. In September 2003, the white loth-wolf stalked the Jedi rebel Danny the Cat while he was infiltrating an Imperial testing facility to steal a TIE/D Defender Elite prototype. After Danny and his human comrade Marinette Dupain-Cheng had crash-landed the starfighter in Lothal's wilderness, the white loth-wolf encountered the two rebels.
The white loth-wolf put Marinette to sleep, startling Danny. At that point, a White Loth-cat appeared on top of the wolf, reassuring Danny of the latter's peaceful intentions. With an Imperial patrol transport approaching, Danny told the loth-wolf and loth-cat that he did not like the Empire. The white loth-wolf then gave Danny and Marinette a ride to the rebel camp where the other Spectres and Ryder Azadi had regrouped. Before leaving, Danny asked the loth-wolf why he had helped them. The wolf gave him the cryptic message "Dume" (a reference to Danny's Jedi master Kanan Jarrus) before vanishing into the fog. Danny later related his encounter with the loth-wolf to Kanan. While Kanan was unsure about the loth-wolf, he believed that all paths were coming together.
===Helping the Rebels===
After retrieving the TIE Defender Elite's hyperdrive, Danny's Spectres rebel cell and Ryder Azadi's Lothal resistance group fled into a series of caves. There, they encountered three loth-wolves including the white loth-wolf. When Danny asked the white loth-wolf if it knew the way out, the creature looked at Kanan. The white loth-wolf and his companions then led the rebels through a tunnel, which was lined with cave paintings showing people following wolves. As the wolves led the rebels into a cave, they mysteriously disappeared into the walls. In fact, they had used a tunnel to enter the World Between Worlds, a mystical plane outside of time and space.
Later, Danny found his master Kanan spending time with the white loth-wolf inside the cave. Danny believed that the cave paintings told the story of Jedi coming from space and following the wolves. When Kanan asked the white loth-wolf why it had help them, the wolf merely said "Dume." Through that encounter, Danny learned that his master Kanan was once called Caleb Dume. Kanan confided with Danny his belief that the wolves were linked to the Force and that the Empire was doing something "terrible" to Lothal. The white loth-wolf then disappeared into the wall.
===Shadowing Kanan===
During General Olivia Flaversham's failed raid on the TIE/D Defender factory in Capital City, the white loth-wolf intercepted Kanan while he was traveling on a speeder bike into Lothal's capital. The appearance of the white loth-wolf caused Kanan to brake, causing him to fall off his bike. When the wolf disappeared, Kanan angrily told the wolf that to stay out of his way if he was not there to help. The white loth-wolf then materialized in front of him. When Kanan asked the wolf what he wanted, the creature growled "Dume" and was joined by two other loth-wolves. Realizing that he needed to act like the Jedi he was, Kanan rescued Mart Mattin and retreated to the Rebel camp.
Prior to Kanan's death during the mission to rescue Olivia, the white loth-wolf watched Kanan, Danny, and Marinette as they departed from the Lothal rebel base in three loth-bat gliders.
===Communing with Danny===
Following Kanan's death, the white loth-wolf and two smaller black wolves confronted Danny while he was grieving over his master's death. When Danny tried to run, one of the black wolves knocked him to the ground. As Danny faded out of consciousness, he found the white loth-wolf staring down at him.
The wolves brought Danny to their leader "Dume," an abnormally large gray loth-wolf with white markings on its head. "Dume" was the manifestation of the Cosmic Force carrying out the will of Jarrus. "Dume" told Danny that the Empire was threatening the Lothal Jedi Temple and left him with a key stone needed to unlock the Painting of the Mortis gods and enter the mystical World Between Worlds.
===Journey to the Lothal Jedi Temple===
The following day, the white loth-wolf and his pack met with Danny and the other Spectres outside the Lothal cliff dwelling. Danny told the white loth-wolf they were ready and ask if he could take them. The white loth-wolf then bent down and allowed Danny to mount him. The other Spectres also mounted the other loth-wolves with one wolf carrying Chopper in its mouth.
The white loth-wolf and his pack then generated a hyper tunnel, which allowed them to travel swiftly to the Lothal Jedi Temple, which was located on the planet's northern hemisphere. The loth-wolves transported the rebels near a cliff overlooking the Jedi Temple. The wolves told Danny that the Jedi Temple was not far away but that they would have to walk there themselves before departing.
The Spectres managed to stop the Empire from gaining access to the World Between Worlds, a mystical realm that allowed one to control time and the universe. However, by sealing the portal to that realm, they caused the Lothal Jedi Temple to sink into the earth. Following the mission to the Jedi Temple, Danny caught a glimpse of the white loth-wolf. Associating the wolf with Kanan, Danny said "goodbye" to his master before rejoining his rebel comrades aboard a stolen Mining Guild excavation driller.
===Liberation of Lothal===
The white loth-wolf and the rest of his pack came to Danny and the Lothal rebels' aid when Governor Arihnda Pryce's forces attacked the Lothal cliff-dwelling. After Danny led the Imperial Noghri assassin Rukh and several stormtroopers into a cave, the white loth-wolf and two other wolves attacked the stormtroopers, killing and mauling several. The white loth-wolf also personally flung Rukh down a cliff.
While the surviving stormtroopers surrendered, the white loth-wolf carried Governor Pryce in its jaws and dropped her in front of the rebels Ryder Azadi, Rex, and Alexsandr Kallus. Danny then accepted Pryce's surrender and took her prisoner.
Danny later used the white loth-wolf to frighten Pryce into assisting the rebels' plan to infiltrate the "Dome" so that they could drive the Empire from Lothal and show the galaxy that the Empire could be defeated.
The white loth-wolf later came to the aid of the rebels Mart Mattin, Wolffe, and Cikatro Vizago when they were attacked by Rukh. He stopped Rukh from shooting Mart and forced him to leave on an Imperial patrol transport. By saving Mart and his comrades, the white loth-wolf helped them to carry out Danny's plan to summon a pod of purrgil to wipe out Grand Admiral Technor's blockading fleet and carry Technor and Danny away into the depths of uncharted space.
===Legacy===
To honor his role in the Liberation of Lothal, the Miraculous Ladybug Marinette Dupain-Cheng painted a mural depicting the white loth-wolf and another loth-wolf flanking the Spectres, including the late Kanan Jarrus and several loth-cats.
==Personality and traits==
The white loth-wolf was a large male canine creature that led a pack of loth-wolves. It had the ability to speak and understand language, as well as traveling through time and space to teleport to other locations. The white Loth-wolf served the will of the Force, and seemingly by extension of the Jedi Knight Kanan Jarrus after his death.
The white loth-wolf also had a special bond with the Jedi Danny the Cat, helping him on several occasions including reuniting him and Marinette with his rebel comrades; transporting him and his fellow Spectres to the Lothal Jedi Temple; defeating Governor Pryce and her stormtroopers; and stopping Rukh from killing Mart Mattin, thus allowing him to initiate Danny's back-up plan to summon a pod of purrgil to Lothal.
The Jedi Knight Kanan was also able to make contact with the white loth-wolf due to his Force sensitivity. As a result, Kanan realized that the white loth-wolf served the will of the Force. The white loth-wolf also once protected Kanan by convincing him to turn back from Lothal's Capital City following Olivia's failed attack on the TIE Defender factory. Despite its alpha status, the white loth-wolf once allowed "Dume", an incarnation of Kanan's will in the Cosmic Force to take leadership of his pack out of respect for Kanan.
==Skills and abilities==
The white loth-wolf, like other members of his species, was larger than most sentient beings including humans. He had the ability to put beings such as Marinette to sleep. The white loth-wolf and other members of his species were also capable of teleporting through space and time by generating hyper tunnels. As a loth-wolf, he was capable of inflicting considerable damage with his large jaws and teeth. The white loth-wolf's jaws were big enough to carry an adult human like Governor Pryce.
==Behind the scenes==
The episode gallery of "A World Between Worlds" states on slide 10 that the white Loth-wolf is named Dume. In an interview, series supervising director and writer Dave Filoni stated that the only wolves that are "real" are probably the gray wolves, and that the white Loth-wolf was more of a guide.
