Powers and Stats

Tier: At least 10-B to 10-A, higher for the biggest subspecies, 9-C kinetic energy. higher via piercing damage

Name: Gray wolf, Canis lupus

Origin: The Real World

Gender: Varies

Age: Varies. In the wild, life expectancy for wolves is 8 to 13 years, but more average of 6 to 8 years. In captivity, however, the age of wolves rises significantly, with many individuals living up to 14 to 17 years, with some even reaching 20 years old.

Classification: Canine, Mammal

Powers and Abilities: Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Natural Weaponry (Claws and teeth), Enhanced Senses (Their sense of smell is 100x greater than a human's. They can recognize the identity of a packmate by its urine. Wolves can hear as far as 9 kilometres away in a forest and 16 kilometres in the open tundra. They also have a sharper vision than most domestic dogs), Stealth Mastery

Attack Potency: At least Human level to Athlete level (Comparable or can be superior to siberian huskies physically.^[1] Eurasian wolves measure 110 to 148 in length, 50–70 cm in shoulder height, and weigh 25 to 35 kg^[2], through some sources claims that males are 39 kg on average^[3], with males generally being 20 percent larger than females.^[4] In India they commonly attack humans and large livestock.^[5] Smaller wolves like Arabian wolf^[6] can hold their own against cheetahs.^[7] They can hunt mooses^[8], roe deers^[9], polar bear cubs^[10] or even bisons.^[11][12] They can fight kangals^[13] & tibetan mastiffs.^[14]), higher for the biggest subspecies (Can kill young adult cougars.^[15] Northwestern wolves are much bigger, with females being 42.5 kg while males averages 51.7 kg in weight with the most larger ones being 61.2 kg^[16] and they can be 2.13 m (7 ft) in length & both sexes were between 68 and 91.5 cm tall at the shoulder.^[17] Large Russian wolves terrorized a town after turning on humans to eat from cattle and dogs with no fear that the military needed to take them out.^[18] One individual killed twelwe combat-trained dogs, three at a time without any significant injury^[19]. The biggest wolf recorded has a weight of 79.4 kg.^[20]), Street level+ kinetic energy. Higher via piercing damage (Although it varies, a normal wolf's bite force is usually 400 PSI but can go up to over 1000 PSI in large wolves, and can potentially reach 1500 psi. Can crush otters skulls. Usually able to easily kill large livestock and large dogs, and have been able to kill young elk by themselves. Able to easily break bones, dent metal, break moose femur, and crush skulls. A lone wolf can kill an elk with just one bite in the neck.^[21])

Speed: Superhuman (Can run up to 37 mph or 60 km/h)

Lifting Strength: Above Average Human to Peak Human (Able to overpower and take down large animals, humans, and guard dogs; Can do high jumps)

Striking Strength: At least Human level to Athlete level, higher for the biggest subspecies (Varies on the strength of the wolf's bite, which can exert this much energy)

Durability: At least Human level to Athlete level, higher for the biggest subspecies (Comparable or can be superior to siberian huskies physically, although their bites are stronger.^[1] They fight each other all the time. They are able to survive serious attacks from animals much larger and stronger than them, like bears, cougars, adult elk or large bison, one survived being crushed by a car. Their lifestyles and bodies are adapted to endure in general)

Stamina: Peak Human (Able to run down prey for over an hour, can still hunt and fight with harsh injuries like skull fractures and losing eyes)

Range: Standard Melee Range

Standard Equipment: None notable

Intelligence: Animalistic (Very high for an animal; Gray wolves are known to exhibit some form of problem-solving abilities. They can analyze situations, identify obstacles, and devise strategies to overcome them. In some tests of logic, wolves outperform domestic dogs. Have a high amount of social skills for an animal, exhibiting well-developed communication systems, and capable of understanding and responding to various social cues. Demonstrate remarkable teamwork and coordination within the pack, and are even able to cooperate with different species like hyenas^[22])

Standard Tactics: Gray wolves have a wide variety of prey due to their teamwork as a pack. When dealing with bison herds, wolves would surround the herd and try to goad the animals into splitting in an effort to kill one of the members of the herd. When they found a target, the pack teams up and goes for the kill.

Weaknesses: Possesses an innate fear for humans and may get stressed at their sight. Not as dangerous when alone.
