As many of you know, Lorwolf’s beta test was reset a couple days ago and testing will continue for a little while longer. In the meantime, we have some exciting goodies to share this month, including a new NPC and a preview of the game’s next breed! Read on to find out more:

What’s new?

• New Crafting NPC - Miss Mac
• Volmyr (Wyvern) breed sketches
• Asks
• Lorwolf is hiring!

Miss Mac’s Crafting Table

Please join us in welcoming Miss Mac, the crafting NPC, to the lands of Loria! Miss Mac is a river otter and a very special character, as I (Alaunis) designed her after my mom. I lost my mom this February very suddenly and unexpectedly, and as a result of her passing I wanted to dedicate some parts of the game to her.

My mom was incredibly talented. Her hands could create just about anything her mind could dream up. From knitting, to sewing, to soap-making, sculpting, baking, painting, and beyond, she practiced and perfected these crafts and spoiled me with an endless supply of beautiful hand-made goods. She was exceptionally generous and enjoyed spending her free time creating gifts for friends and loved ones. As such, I felt our crafting NPC needed to be based on her and her wonderful talents, so that in a way she can continue sharing her creations with others.

As a side note, I also made the Mutterbird companion in memory of her because she adored hummingbirds (and otters!).

New Breed - Volmyr

Shown above are some concept sketches of Lorwolf’s newest wolf breed model - the Volmyr! This breed (wyvern) was the winner of our Kickstarter poll, and will be the next breed featured in the game. We shared these sketches in our Discord server a short while back, but we want to make sure everyone gets a sneak peak!

We haven’t yet decided on the final characteristics for this breed, but we imagine they will be big and formidable yet very gentle and cautious. As you can probably tell, they were based on the real world “flying fox” bats, which we think look remarkably canid.

Lorwolf Asks

Here are answers to the Asks that were submitted recently:

We don’t have an estimated release date for custom skins/apparel yet, unfortunately!

It’s just the two of us, me (Alaunis) and JimJim! We are doing great today, thanks for asking <3

We aren’t quite sure how joining the game after beta will work. We were toying around with the idea of registration windows or some sort of staggered sign-up system, but that’s still TBD!

We haven’t yet decided on the final cost for the monthly membership, but it will provide a certain number of moonstones and remove all ads from the site. Moonstones are used to purchase cosmetic changes - like breed/pattern changes and apparel, and can also be used to purchase more space - such as extra Den space and Mining cart capacity!

Lorwolf Is Hiring!
