Breed Showcase - Direwolf
Description: The Direwolf breed is a relic of the past. Once hailed as Luana’s Warriors, modern Direwolves have now spread out further than just their native home of Murkwood. They are a large breed with dense wiry fur more akin to a Colpach’s pelt than other Loria breeds. They typically weigh between 95 to 140 pounds and stand 36 to 44 inches tall at the shoulder. They have a noticeably short tail, a large maw with equally huge teeth, and a powerful, heavy set of shoulders, which allows them to throw their entire weight on their foes, crushing them with both tooth and body. Their bite sports an array of deadly bacteria, making even just a graze enough to cause serious harm.
Behavior: Direwolves prefer to hunt alone, stalking their prey before rushing them in one fell swoop. Whilst they can be aloof, they have a soft spot for those who prove themselves in battle. With their focused and loyal personality, they make an impressive sparring partner. They have become accustomed to teaching other Lorwolves their ways and skills in modern times rather than remaining totally outcast from others.
Direwolves have long since stopped being Luana’s Warriors, but when push comes to shove, Direwolves can call upon their roots and go into a battle frenzy. Power will course through them, buffing their already powerful abilities beyond their limits. After calling upon this power, a Direwolf will need to rest for several days. Direwolves can often be found sunning themselves on hot rocks or by fires after a particularly rough fight.

Spring, swamp and skirmishes are the very essence of Murkwood. A red hue has overtaken Loria. With that, the Murkwood Seasonal Event has begun! New apparel, new companions, Murkwood’s Consumed and new forum decor. Check out the lore page of Murkwood’s encounter with The Consumed here and the entire event post here.
Leopard and Plain Patterns
As requested by Lorfolk feedback, the Plain pattern has arrived to let your wolves' natural bases shine. Create more unique combinations to get your wolves precisely the way you want them. You can purchase these patterns at the Mole Market for 20k pebbles.
Quillaras, Apparel, and Totem of Whelping
They're dainty-looking, yet they have a glare meaner than an angry Nytha. Don’t fall too much for their cuteness; they’ll happily take a bite if you rub them the wrong way. These grumpy little fluffballs are available in the Mole Market for 100ms.
Totem of Whelping
Lorfolk can now purchase a Totem of Whelping speciality item from the Mole Market, which bypasses the pregnancy cooldown and triggers birth immediately. The Totem of Whelping can be used via a player's inventory; simply select the item and click "Use." Players will then select the expecting wolf they wish to give birth, which will then immediately send the wolf to the Nest. From the nest, you can then click “Give Birth.”
New Apparel
Are teeth and claws not enough to show how fearsome you are? Get tough with the brand-new Spiked Collar apparel. Spiked Collars recipes are available in the Mole Market to purchase.
