The seawolf is a ravenous predator that combines the worst aspects of land and sea animals. Worse, they can take on the form of humanoids in order to lure ship’s crews to their doom. A typical seawolf hunt is begun by a small band of seawolves in humanoid form boarding a ship, seeking to steer it towards the rest of the waiting pack. Once in position, the lookouts are overwhelmed and murdered in order to clear the way for the pack to board and engage in an orgy of mayhem and violence. The ships are usually scuttled after the crew is slaughtered, but some are allowed to float free as bait, or are used by more ambitious seawolves to gather a new crew to murder and consume.   Seawolves rarely leave victims alive, but those that do escape them may be transformed into seawolves themselves. This helps to replenish their numbers—seawolves make for poor parents, and those children who cannot keep up with the pack are left to drown or die of exhaustion. A newly transformed seawolf escapes into the ocean if possible upon transforming, and its first victims are usually its traveling companions. A seawolf remembers only fragments of its life before the change, and may have a personality quirk or two carried over, but is essentially a different, crueler, person.   The natural form of a seawolf is that of a mighty seal with a wolf’s head, and it is this form they are most frequently found in. Their hybrid form is used primarily in combat with humanoids, as they enjoy the mobility it allows on land. Seawolves gather some treasure, usually in the form of magical weapons and armor to use when in a humanoid form. They are nomadic over a wide territory, and territorial clashes between rival packs are both frequent and bloody. Even when in humanoid form they are pure carnivores, and cannot stand the taste of grains or vegetables.   In its natural form, a seawolf is about twelve feet long. They stand between six and seven feet tall in their hybrid forms, and are typically tall for their apparent race when in humanoid guise.
