Wolfbane

Wolfbane is a Dire Wolf and a former companion of the Wildmother. He is played by Justine Penrose.

Despite being separated from them by the Divergence, Wolfbane remains connected to the gods and often acts as their messenger on the Prime Material Plane.

Lute Crate befriended Wolfbane when they took refuge in his cave, about a day's ride outside Emon. They defeated a group of kobolds and smashed their idol, allowing Wolfbane to speak again for the first time in years.

Trivia

 * Dave's reaction to the message and instructions from his god through Wolfsbane are a parody of the film "The Blues Brothers": Jake Blues receives a divine epiphany in Reverend Cleophus's church, so he and his brother Elwood set out "on a mission from God" to get their band back together.
 * Dave's name for the dire wolf prior to it speaking, "Wolfgang", is a reference to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
