Specialties

Once a wolf reaches Master in any given skill, they are able to select a single Specialty to unlock special perks. Specialties are not permanent, so stay tuned for how they are able to be changed.

Fighting

Berserker - This fighter uses a vicious, all-out attack style that also lowers their defenses. Provides a 30% Attack bonus to all fights, but also gives a -10% penalty to Defense score.

Bodyguard - This wolf specializes in protection and may choose one single wolf to protect. All fights except pack challenges directed at their chosen wolf may be answered instead by the bodyguard, with any negative results of the battle going to the bodyguard instead of their chosen wolf.

Hunting

Beast Master - One who is finely in tune with the animals around them. Unlocks a third companion slot which can be used in fights.
