History
Origin[]
Vârcolac, Wolf Lord of the Wolf-Men,[6] spawn of the Elder God Chthon, was an ancient Wolf God/Demon. He mated with Echidna, spawn of Set, and sired Angerboda, a shapeshifting giantess.
Angerboda herself mated with shapeshifting Frost Giant Loki, bearing the Fenris Wolf (among other monsters).[3] It is believed that it is because both parents are shapeshifters that their children came out thus, their form corresponding to the form of their parents during their intercourses.[7]
The Fenris Wolf at its turn became the father of the Wolf Gods.[3]Miscellaneous
