Space Wolves - Wolves of Fenrisian Myth: The legacy of the Wolves of Fenris is long and storied, from the days ten millennia past when their Primarch Leman Russ led them in reclaiming the galaxy for Mankind, to the present era of the late 41st Millennium, as they continue to strive to hold the Allfather's realm together in the face of Traitors, daemons and aliens. When they are first inducted into the Chapter, Aspirants are taught about the Twelve Wolves of Fenris -- the legendary wolves of Fenrisian mythology -- which are always beside them in battle, whether at home, on another world or in the stars. Each of the twelve Great Companies takes its symbol and battle style from one of those twelve wolves, each of whom has a different lesson to impart. Noble and honourable warriors, the Space Wolves constantly struggle with the savage spirit that lurks within, including the Thirteenth Wolf, the barbaric Wulfen that haunts their souls.The Blackmane - The Blackmane is the deadliest of all Fenrisian Wolves.The Bloodied Hunter - The Bloodied Hunter is the wolf of the hunt, a feral killer that rejoices in nothing greater than the tracking and killing of prey beneath a full moon.The Dark Wolf - Virtually alone amongst all the wolves of Fenris the Dark Wolf never howls, never growls, silent as the deep cold of the underverse. In Fenrisian mythology, the Dark Wolf stalks the deepest shadows and follows the spirits of the dead, shepherding them into the cold tombs where they are to wait until the final battle of the Wolf Time. Rune Priests often envision the Dark Wolf stalking their threads, ever watching their wyrd for the time when death will take them.Drekan the Thunderwolf - The Thunderwolf exemplifies strength and raw power over subtlety or guile.The Fire Breather - The Fire Breather is a wolf who dwells in one of the largest volcanoes on Fenris and who spews his wrath into the heavens when angered.The Fire Wolf - The Fire Wolf heralds the coming of Fenris' Season of Fire, when the snows melt and the lands rage, islands sink and new ones rise.

Haegr endures all and when faced with the worst of environments it is to Haegr that the Space Wolves look to for example.The Ice Wolf - In Fenrisian legend, the Ice Wolf was one of the fiercest of Morkai's dread lieutenants. After the defeat of Morkai, the Ice Wolf attacked Leman Russ and struck him dire blows but was defeated and its corpse was cast into the Eye of the Wolf, the sun around which Fenris orbits. At the end of the struggle, the only remnant of the Ice Wolf left was a single fang embedded in the leg of Leman Russ. The slightest touch of the fang could chill the blood of a mortal man but against the fearsome constitution of the Primarch it was barely an irritant. Russ had the fang forged into a mighty blade for his sons and Svellbrandr serves the Chapter to this day.The Iron Wolf - The Iron Wolf is the spirit of the Forge and the Iron Priests, and this wolf teaches the Sons of Russ the value of craftsmanship and the forge.Lakkan, the Runed Wolf - Lakkan is the totem of the Rune Priests and teaches the mysteries of Runes to those who seek them.Lokyar, The Lone Wolf - The Lone Wolf is the aspect of all Wolf Scouts and this wolf teaches that sometimes Wolves must fight and live alone.Morkai - Morkai is the twin-headed guardian of the Fenrisian underworld.
