Topic: The Wolfen


  
  Wolfen
Wolfen are fiercely protective of their pack mates, children (of nearly any race), and their lands, protecting them from all enemies, especially undead incursions.
Wolfen place great stock in their traditions, as well as learning (and expanding the knowledge base of their people), often bringing new skills home to teach.
Wolfen are accustomed to attacking in groups, as such they receive a +1 to hit and AC when they are making a coordinated attack against a single opponent (these bonuses are per additional Wolfen in group, with a max of +3 bonus for four or more wolfen).

 Albert Finney: Wolfen - Movie
Ultimately, Wolfen is fascinating because it's so botched and it is fun to mock it but as a horror movie or even as suspense it doesn't cut the mustard.
While Whitley Streiber's excellent novel portrayed the wolfen as a super-intelligent race of hunters that systematically track down and destroy that which threatens their existence (mainly, Wilson and Neff, investigating the murders of two fellow cops committed by the wolfen), Wadleigh's adaptation blurs the line between survival and political activism.
The wolfen have managed to remain hidden for years due to their cunning; attack the old and infirm, those that will not be missed, and destroy the bodies, something which the two cubs ignored and is now threatening the existence of the pack.

 Wolfen (1981) - IMDb user comments   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Wolfen – not wolves, like a terrifically spiritual Edward James Olmos explains it to us – is a truly inspired and solid horror film that belongs to the best genre-achievements of the 80's.
Wolfen is not a Werewolf/Horror film although at times it does attempt to be so, which is where the confusion arises for the viewer.
Wolfen on the whole is a well made film, excellent use of music (or lack of it)to generate suspense and quality actors and acting help bring you into the story behind the Wolfen.

 Wolfen - DVD
Wolfen is definitely the oddest and most socially conscious of the three big werewolf movies released in 1981 (the others were The Howling and An American Werewolf in London).
Ultimately, Wolfen is fascinating because it's so botched and it is fun to mock it but as a horror movie or even as suspense it doesn't cut the mustard.

 [No title]
The naming of a Wolfen character, perhaps more than any other race, is very important, as it explains where he sees himself in the scope of the Empire's plans, and in the culture of his people.
It commences during the 15th year of a Wolfen's life, on the mid-point between Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice, though some have started much earlier (one famous hero, Haakon, was rumored to have completed his Rite of Passage at seven, though Pragmatists consider this to be somewhat of an exaggeration).
Wolfen society has a refreshing lack of gender bias) Rite of Passage successfully, he is seen as an adult, with all the rights and duties attendant to that.

 Wolfen DVD Review - Digital Retribution
These are "Wolfen", an intelligent wolf-breed who co-existed harmoniously with the native (Indian) Americans until driven underground by the coming of the white man and the attendant slaughter followed by an increasing urban sprawl.
Wolfen is refreshingly subtle in its depiction of the titular character and intelligently restrained in its depiction of the attacks themselves.
Wolfen looks an absolute mess when this beautifully lensed and composed 2.35:1 film is cropped to fit a pan & scam transfer.

It also appears that the Wolfen may be considering purchasing some Wyvern class pocket to fill weakness in their forces until new battlecruisers can be constructed.
The same architects support the concept that even if a replacement is commissioned, upgrading some vessels would allow the Wolfen to strengthen their forces until sufficient new vessels could be completed.
As well, due to a shortage on Wolfen vehicles, new CAF or other designs are often carried in place of them.

Wolfen Empire is the first in a series of books that many Palladium Fantasy RPG fans have been waiting for since 2nd edition came out several years ago.
Wolfen Empire originally started out as an updated compilation of Adventures in the Northern Wilderness and Further Adventures in the Northern Wilderness, two classic adventure books from Palladium Fantasy 1st edition.
