Wolf (Japanese:ウルフWolf) is ahorseman ofAurelis who served as the leader of PrinceHardin's band of knights in their resistance against theMacedonian occupation of the country. After theWar of Shadows, he founded and led theCoyote's Men, an elite Aurelian order in the service of Hardin, now theArchanean Emperor. He was fiercely loyal to Hardin even in his descent into tyranny, and as such led the Coyote's Men to obstructMarth's path toPalace near the climax of theWar of Heroes.

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light

Role

Wolf was a member of Hardin's four-strong squad of knights in the resistance against Macedon, forced into a mountain fortress after the castle had been claimed by Macedonian forces. Upon the arrival of Marth in Aurelis, Wolf, Hardin and the other Aurelis knights rode to accompany them in the battle to reclaim the Aurelis castle, and from there fought in their forces for the rest of theWar of Shadows.

Analysis

In the originalFire Emblem, the only Horsemen available for the player are Wolf andSedgar. In the original game,Castor does not promote and thus remains a foot-locked unit with Level 20 cap.

While Wolf doesn't promote and his "just okay-ish" stats don't compare toJeorge's (or even Castor's), his mobility can offer the tactical advantage player may desire from a mounted bow-user like him. While not amazing per se, Wolf can be one of the more useful bow-users in the originalFire Emblem.

Late in theWar of Heroes, Wolf and the Coyote's Men were travelling south to Palace to bolster Emperor Hardin's forces against the approachingAltean army led by PrinceMarth. Their path took them through the central mountains, where they crossed paths with the Altean army and ambushed it. Wolf fiercely rebukedRoshea for daring to question the legitimacy of Hardin's claims against Marth shortly before the battle began. He is either killed in the ensuing conflict or, should the player visit the village, he stands down along with the rest of the Aurelian forces upon the command of the King of Aurelis.

Growth rates when reclassed

Analysis

Wolf is a very unique unit. He is pre-promoted with terrible base stats and ludicrously high growths. He has slow EXP gain, and the Horseman class is also ill-suited for gaining EXP, so it will take some work to turn him into a strong unit. Reclassing him into a General raises his durability to an acceptable amount so he can start fighting and gaining EXP with little risk. Over time, his incredible growths will kick in, and he will become nearly unkillable even if he is surrounded by enemies. Once he has grown out of his poor bases, he can be reclassed into a more functional class like Hero or Warrior. As a result of this reclassing, his weapon levels will be quite low throughout the game, but he can make up for this with high stats.

Wolf and Sedgar are largely interchangeable, with Wolf having higher Luck and slightly higher Strength, but slightly lower Defense. Wolf's superior Luck can prevent him from facing low-percentage critical rates that Sedgar is vulnerable to.

Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem

Role

As inFire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem,late in theWar of Heroes, Wolf and the Coyote's Men were travelling south to Palace to bolster Emperor Hardin's forces against the approachingAltean army led by PrinceMarth. Their path took them through the central mountains, where they crossed paths with the Altean army and ambushed it. Wolf fiercely rebukedRoshea for daring to question the legitimacy of Hardin's claims against Marth shortly before the battle began. If commanded to stand down by the King of Aurelis, Wolf's forces retreat, but return as reinforcements for Archanea during the battle of Palace; from here, Wolf can be convinced bySedgar to defect from Archanea and ally with Marth's forces.

Analysis

Wolf is one of the many characters inNew Mystery that is usable in lower difficulties, but becomes terrible on Lunatic and Lunatic Reverse. For a unit that joins extremely late, his bases cannot compete with the nearly capped enemies ofNew Mystery endgame and he will at most be able to contribute chip damage. Wolf does luckily posses a good bow rank and he can wield theParthia as he is reclassed to sniper, but at this point you are likely to have better snipers with an A rank in bows. Wolf also does possess very good growths, but most units inNew Mystery do as well and those that do are not likely have better bases or availability to make up for it. As if all that were not enough, Wolf is also one of the hardest characters to recruit in the game due to needing to recruit 3 other characters, all of which will likely get one rounded by both the enemies and even the player's units as 2 of them appear as enemies. Overall, Wolf is not worth the effort it takes to recruit him and even when recruited his performance is quite poor.

Wolf: Coyote's Loyal
Wolf is a horseman of the Coyote's Men, a band of knights who serve Aurelis, one of the kingdoms of Archanea. After Hardin—the crown prince and commander—left the group, Wolf was the man who took over!	Wolf's people come from the plains, and like many of his kin, he was subjected to slavery. When Hardin liberated him from this cruel fate, Wolf pledged his undying loyalty to him.	Normally, Wolf uses a bow, but it seems he's equally capable of using other weapons when the strategy calls for it. In fact, his fellow members of the Coyote's Men consider him a martial genius!	Wolf has an honest and straightforward personality, and he's loyal to not only his lord, but to his friends and allies as well. I think we can expect a lot from him, both as a knight and as a leader!
