A while back I made a half-orc character who ends up going into the eye of gruumsh class. I wanted to make like...a symbol or tattoo for him. Back then I just sort of did this out of boredom and picked a wolf randomly, but it lead to character development.

Cause now he's a werewolf who likes to specifically position himself next to elven villages when he knows he'll turn so he can go harass the populace more effectively.
