They are about as heavy as a [[dwarf]], being only slightly smaller, and should pose no real threat to a civilian unless provoked. They are particularly rare to encounter compared to most animal men.<br /> <br /> Like other savage animal people, wolf men may occasionally join [[civilization]]s, becoming full-fledged citizens who may appear in your fortress as [[visitor]]s or be playable in [[adventurer mode]].<br /> <br /> [[Clothing]] sized for wolf men can still be worn by dwarves, although it's slightly smaller and, therefore, [[weight|lighter]]. As such, metal [[armor]] forged for wolf men will encumber your dwarves about 8% less, the downside being slightly reduced protection against slashing [[weapon]]s.<br /> <br /> Some dwarves [[Preferences|like]] wolf men for their ''cunning''.<br /> <br /> {{D for Dwarf}}<br /> <br /> &lt;!-- &quot;The Wolf Man&quot; franchise of horror films --&gt;<br /> There is currently no clear link between the Wolf Men known to appear in ''Dwarf Fortress'' and the Wolf Men known to appear in extremely badly-made B movies, although they stand roughly equal chance of becoming involved in hideous, gory horror shows. <br /> <br /> &lt;!-- the &quot;Wolf&quot; denomination of Cub Scouts --&gt;<br /> However, in an opposite standpoint, some young male wolf men have been reported to assist human [[noble]]s in [[carpentry]], making knots in rope, and [[medicine]].<br /> <br /> &lt;!-- Reference: &quot;The Boy Who Cried Wolf&quot; fable of Aesop --&gt;<br /> [[File:wolf_man_preview.jpg|thumb|260px|center|When young, they often cry human.&lt;br&gt;&lt;small&gt;''Art by RogueLiger''&lt;br&gt;''Commissioned by NagiWolf''&lt;/small&gt;]]<br /> {{gamedata}}<br /> {{Creatures}}<br /> {{Category|Creatures}}<br /> {{Category|Animals}}</div>
