Wolf like creature living in the articts?

[ZzaphodD]

Im coming up with 'warrior sect' much like the mandalorians which will have a scandinavian mythos-ish background. Think 40K Spacewolves but without the Imperial context. So, are there any wolf-like creatures living in arctic conditions? Then Ill use these creatures instead of the wolves and the planet they live on instead of Fenris.



Ok, downsize the armour to SW-ish levels and you get the idea..

There is an arctic fox... but if you really want something big enough to carry power armour why not go with a polar bear?

This would be a good choice..

without shelter. When in snowy areas, its white fur gives it
+1D to sneak.

Except that its from a Bothan planet, I cant have a Bothan creature as an icon for a human warrior sect..

This seems like the right creatures...
Its not specifically arctic dwelling, but hey some liberties can be taken..and the howl thing really fits. Ok, its from the Corellia system by the book, but pehaps we can use a bit more liberty here as well..
