In Dungeons & Dragons, a wolf is a common creature found in the wilderness, often encountered as a challenge for low-level adventurers or as a companion for rangers and druids. Wolves are medium-sized beasts with keen senses, a strong bite attack, and the ability to work together using their Pack Tactics feature, which grants them an advantage on attack rolls when an ally is within five feet of the target. This makes them formidable in groups, allowing them to overwhelm foes through coordinated strikes.

Wolves have high perception due to their keen hearing and smell, making them excellent trackers. They are often found in forests, hills, and tundras, either as wild animals or under the command of more powerful creatures such as wargs, dire wolves, or lycanthropes like werewolves. Some humanoid enemies, such as goblins or orcs, may use wolves as mounts or hunting animals.

For players, wolves are a popular choice for ranger animal companions or druid wild shapes due to their mobility, tracking abilities, and Pack Tactics. Some subclasses, such as the Totem Warrior Barbarian, can even adopt the wolf’s spirit for enhanced teamwork benefits.

Dire wolves, a larger and stronger variant, provide a more dangerous challenge, often leading wolf packs. In roleplay, wolves can serve as symbols of loyalty, the wild, or even omens, depending on the setting. Whether as allies or foes, wolves are a staple of D&D, embodying both the beauty and danger of nature.
