Sarulf is a Cosmos monster from Kaldheim.[1] He is known as the Dread-Wolf and the Realm Eater.

Description

Sarulf is a giant wolf, with pups the size of horses.[2] Like all Cosmos monsters, he was created at the birth of the world and dwelled in the void between the realms of Kaldheim.

History

Sarulf carved a swathe of destruction as he wandered the realms. Working together, the gods and the dwarves captured him on Axgard. Sarulf was trapped in a cavern and bound with eight magical chains. Yet, his incessant howling was intolerable to the dwarves, who demanded that the gods find another place to imprison the wolf. While he was being transported to Littjara, Sarulf escaped, and he again now wanders free in the Cosmos.[3]

Sarulf has two children: Kit a little wolf who lives with a human girl, and Lukya a beautiful copper wolf who became Lathril's companion. Lukya is sent by her father to Lathril to guide the elf to the realm where Kit lived and was kidnapped. After saving Kit, Lukya decided to live with Lathril. As a way of thanking her, Sarulf blessed Lathril and her people by allowing them to walk around their territories and communicate with their beasts.[4]

Sarulf would become compleated during New Phyrexia's Invasion of the Multiverse.

Trivia

  • Sarulf is inspired by the wolf Fenrir, and possibly the wolves Hati and Sköll, the devourers of the Moon and the Sun, respectively.
  • Sarulf appears in the extended cinematic for Kaldheim.[5]
