A Wolf Samurai in Dungeons & Dragons typically combines elements from both a wolf and samurai archetype, though it is not an official class or race in standard rules. It is often created through homebrew content or role-playing adaptations, where a character is designed to embody the fierce spirit of a wolf and the disciplined code of the samurai.

In most interpretations, the Wolf Samurai would be a warrior who not only possesses martial prowess but also has an intrinsic connection to wolves, often serving as a protector or hunter. This connection could be represented through a druidic or ranger background, enhancing their abilities to track, fight in packs, or communicate with wolves. In some cases, this character might have a familiar or animal companion, such as a dire wolf or regular wolf, which aids them in combat or scouting.

The samurai aspect emphasizes a strict code of honor, with a focus on combat excellence and personal duty. The Wolf Samurai could be a member of a disciplined warrior class, such as a Fighter or Paladin, but adheres to a code reminiscent of the Bushido code, which values loyalty, courage, and respect. Their abilities in combat would center on precision and strategy, mirroring a samurai's mastery of katana or similar weapons, paired with the instincts and agility of a wolf.

As a Wolf Samurai, the character might gain advantages in tracking, survival, or mounted combat, depending on the chosen subclass or background. The blend of martial skill and animalistic instinct makes them a formidable presence on the battlefield, able to fight both in close combat and from a tactical distance, much like the wolf hunting in packs.
