May change the face as it is an odd contrast.
Egg
This egg crackles whenever you get close to it, making you uneasy.
Hatchling
You woke up to the smell of burning hair and scorched floors where the egg once was. Thunder wolves make very peculiar hatchlings, their hide remains static during their youth, obscuring their bodies in a strange mashup of fur and downy feathers. With boundless energy, it is often hard to keep up with a newborn thunder pup, but a wise magi knows not to let them roam the keep without restrictions, as thunder wolves raised without boundaries in youth can grow up to become feral, aloof beasts.
Adult
Your wolf has long since left the keep, lurking on the edges of graveyards, or at the fringes of nasty storms. Local towns are convinced it is a spirit, and no one has managed to approach it before it disappears again. The only time the creature really sticks around is when travelling with you, otherwise it is nowhere to be seen. When visiting grave sites with your companion an unsettling feeling starts to gnaw at you, as if there was something terribly wrong with the final resting place of the deceased.
General Description
Thunder wolves appear at the edges of battlefields after fighting has ceased, or on the edges of natural disasters. Those who see them are usually the ones abandoned amongst the corpses. In their delirious state they may mistake these creatures as angels, carrying the souls of the dead to the heavens above as they pick through the battlegrounds. No one is quite sure what their real purpose is or what they are actually doing amongst the dead. Some say that when close to the deceased the wolves weaken the boundary between the living and the dead, it is often disregarded as silly superstitions from old legends long since forgotten.
Thanks!!!
