The SendingStone review

The wolf is a staple creature in many fantasy tabletop games, including Dungeons & Dragons. With a challenge rating of 1/4, it is a relatively weak enemy that can serve as an early game challenge for low-level parties. Its stats reflect its role as a natural predator, with high dexterity and passive perception, as well as a powerful bite attack. However, it is also an unaligned creature, meaning it lacks any inherent motivations beyond survival. This makes it a versatile adversary that can be used in a variety of encounters. Overall, while the wolf may not be the most intimidating creature in the game, it remains a valuable addition to any dungeon master's roster of monsters.
